We have to get on this Pat Blessington story because I do not even know if his only daughter is alive..however, he had numerous brothers and sisters..like 20 or so...he was from Longford? Acua? Arva? His daughter said the amnesia story was not right...that they wrote to Ireland but he knew who he was and apparetnly some of the brothers and sisters met the ship...he got on the Carpathia? somehow I believe..the main rescue ship. This was one of the most saintly people I have ever met and of course people can have false memory syndrome but I think this is the truth..which is always stranger than fiction. mg
