I think that's the LP that I learned this song from too!!

I spent some time in the National Records Office at Kew, and found the manifest for this tragic ship. The captains' name is recorded there as Teare and it took place in 1909 (sung as nineteen nine) not nintey nine as in the last set of posted words.
