	Encyclopedia Titanica Message Board: "Thomas Andrews - Shipbuilder"
		Given the era and the circumstances under which it was written, and the very real affection and regard in which Andrews was held, the author's uncritical approach is perhaps not very surprising.
		I'm a part of a writing circle dedicated to (among other things) writing about Thomas Andrews, an one of our members was curious about what happened to Helen, and if anyone's got some dates as far as her marriage to Harry Harland, I'd really appreciate that.
		Thomas Andrews had two brothers: John Miller Andrews who became the second Prime Minister of Northern Ireland (1940 - 1943)and James Andrews who became Lord Chief Justice of Northern Ireland (1937-1951).

		Thomas Andrews died with his ship that terrible night in April of 1912.
		In this latter aspect, the book is a powerful testimonial to a young man, born with all the advantages Edwardian society had to offer, yet who never the less earned the admiration and respect of everyone around him through his unremitting hard work and constant vigilance to be the very best he could be.
		It is truly interesting to speculate what mark Andrews would have made on Ulster society had he lived to fulfill the powerful role in business and society for which he was being groomed.

	MGY CQD - Sinking of the Titanic

		Andrews knew it would happen, and he would not be given to false hopes of survival.
		Andrews cannot be faulted for failure to try it, since such a concept was almost unheard of in his time.

		Andrews nearly spit out the tea he was sipping, and Elisabeth actually did begin to choke on the breadstick she was eating—from suddenly starting to laugh.

		Walter Lord: Up to this point, Thomas Andrews appears to have been one of the very few in charge who gave any thought to rescuing people from the Third Class regions of the ship, and the only one who worried about them even before the extent of the damage became clear.
		After this rescue, Thomas Andrews spent the next two hours making sure lifeboats were safely away, breaking down E-Deck stateroom doors and closing open portholes while passing the broken doors to assistants, so they could be cast overboard as potential rescue floats.
		He gave everything he could, to sealing potential new leaks (generated by problems with overheating in staterooms – which had caused many passengers to sleep with their portholes open), hoping to keep the Titanic afloat a while longer, so the maximum number of lifeboats could get away.

		Bruce Ismay, who survived, and the ship's builder Thomas Andrews, who was on board to observe any problems and assess the general performance of the new ship.

		The single most important man in the massive operation was Thomas Andrews, the youthful chief designer and managing director of the company.

		It was Andrews, on board Titanic on her maiden voyage in April 1912, who first realised that the damage caused by the collision with the iceberg was fatal.

		Facile comments on jack and rose, entirely fictitious characters, detract fron the many genuine tales of humanity and heroism aboard Titanic, of whom Andrews was a shining example.Like Captain Smith, he was compelled to go down with the ship he designed.

		There is a scene during the sinking, right about the time Rose and Jack discover Andrews where he apologizes for not building a stronger ship.
