Harold Cottam
Harold Thomas Cottam (27 January 1891 – 30 May 1984) was the wireless operator on the RMS ''Carpathia'' when the SOS from the sinking RMS ''Titanic'' was sent.〔Associated Press (31 May 1984). (Harold Cottam ), ''The Blade''〕〔Cottam, Harold Thomas (28 April 1912). (Titanic's "C.Q.D." was caught by a lucky fluke ), ''The New York Times''〕 It was also he who awakened Captain Arthur Henry Rostron after receiving the distress signal. Without his diligence, and the somewhat fortuitous circumstances, many more people might have died in the ''Titanic'' disaster. Cottam was off duty and about to go to bed, but he left the radio on and listened to Cape Race, reputedly to learn the results of Saturday's football matches. He heard Cape Race advise that they had private traffic for the ''Titanic'' and thought it would be helpful to inform the ''Titanic'' of this. In reply he received Jack Phillips's SOS call.〔http://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/harold-cottam-1.html〕
Cottam received a "hero's welcome" when the ''Carpathia'' reached New York. He continued to work at sea until 1922, when he took a job as a sales representative.〔(22 September 2008). (Auction items show role of Notts man in Titanic rescue ), ''Nottingham Post''〕
