Barbara Joyce West Dainton (born May 24 1911) was born in Bournemouth, Dorset, England and was 10 months and 22 days old when the Titanic sank. Her family boarded the Titanic at Southampton as second-class passengers. Barbara, her mother and older sister Constance escaped on one of the lifeboats (possibly number 10). Barbara's father, Edwy Arthur West, died in the sinking. Barbara West married William Ernest B. Dainton in 1952 and currently lives in Truro, England.[1] She is 95 years old.
