I've been re-kindling my interest in WWI. I bought the video series "The First World War" (Channel 4)

My Dad's side of the family got out of Europe right before the War started (Austrio-Hungary) and moved to Brasil.
My Great-Grandfather James Milne was Master-at-Arms on the HMHS Brittanic:

Luckily he survived her sinking. Otherwise I probably wouldn't be here!

No photo of him though.

Don't know about the rest of the family.

Mike.
