A relative of one of the victims of the Titanic maritime disaster has been located in Surbiton.

Wallace Hartley was a band member on the ship when it sank on its maiden voyage on April the 15th 1912. 

A talk will be held at St Mary’s Church in Long Ditton tonight, where the newly found relative of Wallace’s will be guest speaker. 

The church is the burial ground for Austin Partner, the only other victim of the disaster, besides Wallace, to be buried in England.
