In Halifax, Nova Scotia there is a cemetery with a whole section in the back dedicated to the victims of one disaster – the sinking of the Titanic In the aftermath of the Titanic sinking in 1912, the city of Halifaz served as a recovery point for many of the victims bodies, with a number being brought ashore and subsequently buried in local cemeteries . The most notable burial site is the Fairview Lawn Cemetery, where 121 victims are interred, marked by distinctive gravestones that often include the names of the deceased as well as poignant inscriptions. The presence of these graves has made Halifax a site of historical remembrance, attracting visitors and researchers interested in the legacy of the Titanic tragedy.
The last time we visited Fairview Lawn Cemetery there was one grave pilled high with stuffed animals, toys, flowers and the name on the headstone was a Jack Dawson. Because Jack was a boiler-man on Titanic the tributes were odd until we learned that Jack Dawson was the name given to a character played by Leonardo DiCaprio in the movie Titanic.
