There can be few people who don't know the story of the sinking of The RMS Titanic on April 15th 1912. There are many myths and legends surrounding the events of that day but one true story that few people are aware of is the fact that 14 people from the tiny parish of Addergoole in County Mayo, a region in the shadow of Mount Nephin with a then population barely above 1,000, were on board that fateful journey that ended so tragically for 11 of them.
