Molly Brown by Victoria
Margaret
Brown
The unsinkable Molly Brown
Molly brown was born on Thursday July 18th, 1867 in Hannibal
Missouri, United States. She was married to James Joseph Brown; but that wasn’t
all in this little family, they had a son and daughter who went by the names of
Lawrence Palmer Brown and Catherine Ellen Brown. Now way before she became
known as the Unsinkable Molly Brown she was known for being the first women in
the United States to run for political office; she ran for senate for eight
years straight! Molly and her daughter were known for travelling all of Europe
with the John Jacob Astor party in Cairo, Egypt. After their adventures of
Europe Molly received a very tragic message saying that her first grandchild
was very ill, so knowing that,she thought she had to get to New York City as
quickly as possible. She booked a ticket for the earliest ship leaving to New
York which happened to be the Titanic. From her quick decision to go to New
York her daughter stayed back and very few of her family members knew about her
boarding the Titanic. After being on the Titanic when it hit the ice berg she
made a quick move to the lifeboat number 6. Once she got in that boat everyone
was in panic and shock of the fact that the Unsinkable ship was beginning to
sink! So she took charge of the lifeboat full of women and she began telling
them what to do and to stay focused; she became the rock of the boat. She was
known as the Unsinkable Molly Brown because after she took charge of the
lifeboat which made it safely to the boat which had all the survivors on it;
not only did she save them but she remained calm the whole time! She reassured
all the woman and kept them calm while this was happening. 20 years later Molly
Brown had died of a brain tumor on Wednesday October 26th,1932 aged
of 65. Even though Molly Brown is gone she will always be remembered as the
Unsinkable Molly Brown that made an impact on the titanic tragedy!
