The Sinking of The Sultana
🕑 Added 2021-11-16 11:16:00 +0000 UTCIn the aftermath of this disaster, many survivors stayed in touch with one another. From 1885 onward, in fact, there were annual reunions, which would take place as close to the anniversary of the sinking as possible each year.
Over time, as survivors grew old and passed away, the number of people attending these reunions dwindled. In 1930 only one person attended. The last survivor died in 1941, having lived a full life.
You might think that would be the end of the reunions... but they actually still carry on, albeit in a different form. The Sultana Association of Descendants and Friends holds at least one meeting each year, to which anyone is welcome, whether they're related to someone who was involved in the disaster, or just interested in learning more about the history of it.
