Evelyn Marsden (later married as Evelyn James) (15 October 1883 – 30 August 1938) was the only Australian female survivor of the sinking of the RMS ''Titanic'' and was rescued in lifeboat 16.〔(Titanic Ship Crew )〕〔(Everlyn Marsden biography )〕 She was the daughter of railway worker Walter Henry Marsden (Hoyleton Stationmaster in 1912) and Annie Bradshaw. Her birthplace of Stockyard Creek is about 80 km north of Adelaide, South Australia and is now ruins. ==''Titanic'' survivor== Evelyn, who previously worked on board the ship RMS ''Olympic'', signed-on to the RMS ''Titanic'' on 6 April 1912, and gave her address as 7 West Marlands Terrace, The Polygon, Southampton. She was 28 and single at the time and as a stewardess she was paid monthly wages of £3 10s. She assisted also as a nurse for the First Class passengers.〔(Medical care aboard Titanic )〕 There is mention of Evelyn in a letter by Mary Sloan to her sister on 27 April 1912, stating that they both were taken to Dr. Simpson's room for a little whiskey and water during the disaster. Dr. Simpson then hurried away and was never seen by them again.〔(Mary Sloan Letter dated 27 April 1912 )〕 Evelyn and Mary escaped on Boat 16 which was lowered at 1.35 a.m. from the Port side by 6th Officer Moody. This boat held about 40 people with no incidents recorded while loading.〔(Lifeboats )〕 They were in this boat all night until the RMS ''Carpathia'' picked them up, at about seven in the morning. George Robinson, the uncle of Evelyn Marsden was also noted as being aboard the Titanic.〔(Titanic Voices )〕
