Thanks for the welcome.
Just a clarification to something Kittyb216 wrote, all of the documentation that I have on the Lusitania states that none of the Bartleys' bodies were ever found. In fact, few were. There were 50 bodies recovered of the 404 missing crew, 68 bodies recovered of the 178 missing Saloon passengers, 82 bodies recovered of the 374 missing Second Cabin passengers, and only 23 bodies recovered of the 239 missing Third Class passengers (including the Bartleys). There were also 65 bodies that remained unidentified.
