For instance, in the very first paragraph at Wikipedia, we find:

The ship was identified and torpedoed by the German U-boat U-20, took on a heavy starboard list, and sank in 18 minutes. [1]

The vessel went down 11 miles (18 km) off the Old Head of Kinsale, [2]:429 Ireland, killing 1,198 and leaving 761 survivors. [1]

That is because they had another round of in-your-face numerology for the second paragraph:

At the time she was sunk, she was carrying over 4 million rounds of small-arms ammunition (. 303 caliber), almost 5,000 shrapnel shell casings (for a total of some 50 tons), and 3,240 brass percussion fuses, in addition to 1,2 66 passengers and a crew of 696. [3] [4]

"Torpedoes coming on the starboard side!"

At about 11:00 on 7 May, the Admiralty radioed another warning to all ships, probably as a result of a request by Alfred Booth, who was concerned about Lusitania:

"U-boats active in southern part of Irish Channel.

Last heard of twenty miles south of Coningbeg Light Vessel."

At 13:25, the submarine submerged to periscope depth of 11 meters and set a course to intercept the liner at her maximum submerged speed of 9 knots.

As you see, they really overloaded this story with aces and eights, Chai.

That last quote allows us to move onto the next major clue here.

The British Navy not only knew U boats were in the area, but they were also tracking them.

As the liner steamed across the ocean, the British Admiralty had been tracking the movements of U-20, commanded by Kapitänleutnant Walther Schwieger, through wireless intercepts and radio direction finding.

Walther Schwieger (Wilhem Otto Walther Schwieger) (7 April 1885 – 5 September 1917) was a U-boat commander in the Imperial German Navy (Kaiserliche Marine) during First World War. In 1915, he sank the passenger liner RMS Lusitania with the loss of 1,199 lives.

The submarine left Borkum on 30 April, heading north-west across the North Sea.

On 2 May, she had reached Peterhead and proceeded around the north of Scotland and Ireland, and then along the western and southern coasts of Ireland, to enter the Irish Sea from the south.

Irish Sea - Wikipedia

Although the submarine's departure, destination, and expected arrival time were known to Room 40 in the Admiralty, the activities of the decoding department were considered so secret that they were unknown even to the normal intelligence division which tracked enemy ships or to the trade division responsible for warning merchant vessels.

Only the very highest officers in the Admiralty saw the information and passed on warnings only when they felt it essential. [23]

This very U-boat had just sunk a merchant schooner, the Earl of Lathom, two days earlier, at the same spot.

A day later, that is one day before the Lusitania was sunk, the same U-boat sank the 6,000-ton streamer The Candidate and the British cargo ship The Centurion.

Also remember that they admit the German government published a warning to all passengers in 50 American newspapers on April 22.

In several cities, including New York, the warning was published right next to the advertisement from the Lusitania, seeking passengers.

Beyond that, the British navy warned the Lusitania several times to be on the lookout for submarines.

The problem is, these stories have no continuity, since, given all that, the British navy should have had a heavy presence in those waters, to protect shipping.

Those waters should have been crawling with British U-boats and submarine destroyers.

We would have expected the Lusitania to have a heavy British escort from the time it entered Irish waters.

But it didn't.

Why not?

Instead, we are supposed to believe it was just left to itself, like an American President without his Secret Service or a Swedish Prime Minister walking the streets of Stockholm alone with his wife at night.

What they don't tell you is that the US and British actually had far more submarines than the Germans.

At the start of the war, Germany only had 20, while England had about 75 and the US a similar number.

Despite that, all you ever hear about are the German subs.

Where were the British and American subs in 1915, during this Lusitania story?

I encourage you to research that question:

Another problem is the same one we saw in the Titanic hoax:

the burying of bodies found.

We are told 148 bodies were buried at Queenstown, in the Old Church Cemetery, and another 141 at Kinsale, in the Church of St. Multose.

But there is no possibility that is true.

Remember, there were 128 Americans onboard, and a larger group of Canadians, but most of the 1,962 passengers and crew were allegedly British or Irish.

As such, these bodies wouldn't be buried en masse in little Irish cemeteries, they would be returned to their families to be buried in local plots.

Also, Queenstown is a big red flag, since it was the site of the US Naval Air Station and before that of the Royal Navy Station.

I trust you see why that is a clue.

An even bigger clue: that Naval Station was used for. . . allied operations against submarines.

So, we might as well be told these people were buried on a Navy base.

In fact, according to my quick search, there was no Queenstown, Ireland, in 1915.

The town there was called Cobh or Aghada, and the base was called Queenstown.

The Old Church is north of there, in the suburbs of Cork, but it is a ruins.

I find it doubtful it could have taken 148 bodies in 1915.

The Church of St. Multose does exist in Kinsale, but its cemetery is also tiny and couldn't fit a mass burial from the Lusitania.

That's all we get at the Old Church, as proof of the Lusitania story.

I guess 148 people are buried under that rock, end to end.

Here's another clue:

So, are we expected to believe that the Admiralty in 1915 believed the best way to evade submarines was to pretend they weren't there and let ships proceed as usual, with:

• no escort
• no naval presence
• no reconnaissance

And another example:

At sea, the ships contacted Lusitania by radio, but did not have the codes used to communicate with merchant ships.

Captain Daniel Dow of Lusitania refused to give his own position except in code, and since he was, in any case, some distance from the positions he gave, continued to Liverpool unescorted.[2]:91–2[12][13]:76–7

Captain Daniel Dow | Biography (ggarchives.com)

What?

Are you confused yet?

If not, the fake historians have not done their jobs.

So, we are supposed to believe the ships couldn't communicate with each other?

We are supposed to believe Captain Dow gave the British the wrong position on purpose?

Next, we get this:

Captain Dow, apparently suffering from stress from operating his ship in the war zone, and after a significant "false flag" controversy [further explanation needed] left the ship; Cunard later explained that he was "tired and really ill."[15]

He was replaced with a new commander, Captain William Thomas Turner, who had previously commanded Lusitania, Mauretania, and Aquitania in the years before the war.

Captain William Thomas Turner OBE RNR (23 October 1856 – 23 June 1933) was a British merchant captain. He is best known as the captain of RMS Lusitania when she was sunk by a German torpedo in May 1915.

It just keeps getting worse.

Even the Wiki editors can't figure out what that means, asking for further explanation.

How could Dow leave the ship?

Did he just jump overboard and swim to shore?

And where did Captain Turner come from?

Did every Cunard ship have a spare Captain in the rack, just in case?

Or did they chopper him in?

Below that, we are told Turner relieved Dow back in New York, but above we were just told Dow had been talking to the British Navy on the radio on May 6 or 7.

It can't be both ways.

And then there's this:

The return of the battleship Orion from Devonport to Scotland was delayed until 4 May and she was given orders to stay 100 miles (160 km) from the Irish coast. [24]

And this:

At about 11:00 on 7 May, the Admiralty radioed another warning to all ships, probably as a result of a request by Alfred Booth, who was concerned about Lusitania:

"U-boats active in southern part of Irish Channel.

Last heard of twenty miles south of Coningbeg Light Vessel."

Booth and all of Liverpool had received news of the sinkings [of the previous days], which the admiralty had known about by at least 3:00 that morning. [28]

Then we have four different accounts of where the torpedo allegedly hit:

Though Schwieger states the torpedo hit beneath the bridge, survivor testimony, including that of Captain Turner, gave a number of different locations: some stated it was between the first and second funnels, others between the third and fourth, and one claimed it struck below the capstan.

These bozos never can keep their stories straight.

This tells us the torpedo didn't hit anywhere, because neither the ship nor the sub was even there.

This whole thing only happened on paper.

Best guess is the empty Lusitania simply passed Britain by, and, like the Titanic, secretly went to port in Hamburg or somewhere.

There it hid out for a time while they repainted her and made some other cosmetic changes.

She then re-appeared sometime later with a new name.

The head of the Cunard Lines was Alfred Allen Booth.

Sir Alfred Allen Booth, 1st Baronet (17 September 1872 – 13 March 1948) was a British businessman and shipowner. A scion of the Booths of Dunham Massey, Cheshire, his great-grandfather moved to Liverpool in the mid-18th century.  Booth was created a baronet in 1916 by Prime Minister H. H. Asquith for supporting Britain's war effort and services to industry.

Of course we have seen that name many times, involved in huge hoaxes.

Think of John Wilkes Booth, as just the most obvious example.

John Wilkes Booth (May 10, 1838 – April 26, 1865) was an American stage actor who assassinated United States President Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., on April 14, 1865. A member of the prominent 19th-century Booth theatrical family from Maryland, he was a noted actor who was also a Confederate sympathizer; denouncing President Lincoln, he lamented the then-recent abolition of slavery in the United States.

Lincoln’s Assassination was a Manufactured Event: Meaning it NEVER Happened – Library of Rickandria

Alfred was 1st Baronet, of Liverpool, of the Booths of Dunham Massey.

Benjamin Franklin Butler (November 5, 1818 – January 11, 1893) was an American major general of the Union Army, politician, lawyer, and businessman from Massachusetts. Born in New Hampshire and raised in Lowell, Massachusetts, Butler was a political major general of the Union Army during the American Civil War and had a leadership role in the impeachment of U.S. President Andrew Johnson. He was a colorful and often controversial figure on the national stage and on the Massachusetts political scene, serving five terms in the U.S. House of Representatives and running several campaigns for governor before his election to that office in 1882.

His maternal grandfather was Benjamin Franklin Butler, 12th Attorney General of the United States, under President Polk.

James Knox Polk (/poʊk/;[1] November 2, 1795 – June 15, 1849) was the 11th president of the United States, serving from 1845 to 1849. He also served as the 13th speaker of the House of Representatives from 1835 to 1839 and the ninth governor of Tennessee from 1839 to 1841. A protégé of Andrew Jackson, he was a member of the Democratic Party and an advocate of Jacksonian democracy. Polk is known for extending the territory of the United States through the Mexican–American War during his presidency, annexing the Republic of Texas, the Oregon Territory, and the Mexican Cession after winning the Mexican–American War.

His mother was an Allen, which means Alfred's middle name was a transported surname—that surname being Jewish.

Exposing the Jews – Library of Rickandria

And notice that Alfred has strong links to the US, especially New York, which confirms his links to John Wilkes Booth.

Alfred's cousin, Paul Crompton, also a shipping manager, faked his death on the Lusitania.

Mr. Paul Crompton - The Lusitania Resource (rmslusitania.info)

Alfred's son, the 2nd Baronet, went to Yale and ended up in California, where he became a television director and head of KTLA in Los Angeles.

Alfred's brother was head of:

• the Midland Railway
• the LMS Railway
• Martin's Bank

Just to remind you, the Booths had previously been baronets back in the 1600s as well.

In fact, they were among the first baronets created in 1611.

Before that, they were Bothes, as were the ancestors of John Wilkes Booth, who we are told were Bothas.

John Wilkes Booth's genealogy has been scrubbed after a few generations, probably to hide his links to the Booth baronets, who were also Warburtons and Breretons.

The Warburtons take us directly back to the Stanleys, Beaumonts, de Veres, Nevilles, and Lucies, taking us to the Stuarts and straight to the top.

We go in a direct line to John of Gaunt, who then takes us to the Komnenes/Kohens.

John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster (6 March 1340 – 3 February 1399) was an English royal prince, military leader, and statesman. He was the fourth son (third surviving) of King Edward III of England, and the father of King Henry IV. Because of Gaunt's royal origin, advantageous marriages, and some generous land grants, he was one of the richest men of his era and was an influential figure during the reigns of both his father and his nephew, Richard II. As Duke of Lancaster, he is the founder of the royal House of Lancaster, whose members would ascend the throne after his death. His birthplace, Ghent in Flanders, then known in English as Gaunt, was the origin of his name.

So, there you are.

That's where we end up in every paper.

Just as an Astor pretended to go down with the Titanic, we find a Vanderbilt pretending to go down with the Lusitania.

Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt Sr. (October 20, 1877 – May 7, 1915) was an American businessman and member of the Vanderbilt family. A sportsman, he participated in and pioneered a number of related endeavors. He died in the sinking of the RMS Lusitania.

Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, third son of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, was age 37 at the time.

Cornelius "Corneil" Vanderbilt II (November 27, 1843 – September 12, 1899) was an American socialite and a member of the prominent United States Vanderbilt family.

He was Skull and Bones, getting you started.

Alfred had gone through a nasty divorce six years earlier, a public scene so nasty his mistress Agnes Ruiz committed suicide.

About 3.5 years earlier he had remarried, though the marriage was more a combination of fortunes than a love match.

Margaret Emerson was a divorcée and heiress to the Bromo-Seltzer fortune.

Although she lived in the US, Vanderbilt spent all his time in London.

He had an estate in Brighton where he liked to fox hunt and drive coaches.

My guess is he retired there after faking his death in 1915.

Like Astor, his body was never recovered, of course.

So, we have no proof he died.

For a long time, it was reported that Alfred had been booked on the Titanic as well but decided not to go at the last minute.

This has now been proved to be false, since he was never on the manifest.

They admit on his page at Wiki that his uncle George had been the one booked on the Titanic. 

Which of course makes it strange that Alfred made such a big deal about dodging that bullet.

In other words, he lied about it.

So, what makes you think he wouldn't lie about the Lusitania as well?

And we find the usual fake stories of heroism with Vanderbilt, who supposedly gave his life jacket to a child and helped many children down into lifeboats.

You can almost hear the violins.

Except that we know these people like Vanderbilt were the opposite of heroic, being vicious predators in real life.

These stories alone are proof the whole event was a lie.

And here's some more numerology from his page:

By the terms of his will, Margaret and his three sons would inherit $1,180,09 8.18

Why the 18 cents?

Now you know.

Marguerite Lucile Jolivet (25 September 1884 – 2 March 1971), known professionally as Rita Jolivet, was a British actress in theatre and silent films in the early 20th century. She was known in private life as the Countess Marguerita de Cippico.

Another famous person who allegedly survived the Lusitania was actress Rita Jolivet:

I publish that very large so you can see what I saw immediately:

it is fake.

There are real pictures of her, but that one is not real.

It has been heavily repainted; I don't know why.

Charles Frohman (July 15, 1856 – May 7, 1915) was an American theater manager and producer, who discovered and promoted many stars of the American stage. Frohman produced over 700 shows, and among his biggest hits was Peter Pan, both in London and the US.  In 1896, Frohman co-founded the Theatrical Syndicate, a nationwide chain of theaters that dominated the American touring company business for more than two decades until the Shubert brothers grew strong enough to end its virtual monopoly. He partnered with English producers, including Seymour Hicks, with whom he produced a string of London hits prior to 1910, such as Quality Street, The Admirable Crichton, The Catch of the Season, The Beauty of Bath, and A Waltz Dream.  At the height of his fame, Frohman died in the 1915 sinking of the RMS Lusitania.

I include her not only because she is obviously Jewish, and because she was a French noble related to many other nobles, including the Stewarts of England, but because when the Lusitania was torpedoed, she was allegedly standing next to her producer Charles Frohman, who took that opportunity to quote Peter Pan:

“Why fear death?

It is the most beautiful adventure in life.”

If you believe that, you need serious help.

If your ship got torpedoed, is that what you would say?

I didn't think so.

Frohman was Jewish, gay, and 58, but I can't tell you why he faked his death.

Possibly he was in debt and needed to cash out his life insurance policy, which he did through one of his relatives.

Jerome David Kern (January 27, 1885 – November 11, 1945) was an American composer of musical theatre and popular music.

Jerome Kern and William Gillette were supposed to be traveling with him, but I guess they got a case of the scruples at the last minute and decided not to fake their deaths.

William Hooker Gillette (July 24, 1853 – April 29, 1937) was an American actor-manager, playwright, and stage manager in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is best remembered for portraying Sherlock Holmes on stage and in a 1916 silent film.

And Frohman's burial proves what I said above, contradicting the mainstream story:

Next, we find that the same person presided over the Lusitania investigation that presided over the Titanic investigation:

Lord Mersey (John Bigham, Viscount Mersey).

John Charles Bigham, 1st Viscount Mersey, PC (3 August 1840 – 3 September 1929) was a British jurist and politician. After early success as a lawyer and a less successful spell as a politician, he was appointed a judge and worked in commercial law.  After his retirement, Mersey remained active in public affairs and is probably best remembered for heading the official Board of Trade inquiries into the sinking of steamships, most notably RMS Titanic, RMS Lusitania, and RMS Empress of Ireland; and also Falaba, which gave rise to the Thrasher incident.

That's convenient.

No, it really is convenient for me, since my proof that the Titanic was a fake, spills over here.

I spent a lot longer on that paper than I intend to spend on this one, but since I proved the Titanic was fake, without any doubt, we know Lord Mersey was a fraud.

And since he presided over the Lusitania as well, it must be a fraud, too.

That is the way logic and all the rules of inference work.

In fact, Mersey presided over a third big one:

We can prove that with very little research, since the smaller ship that allegedly rammed the Empress of Ireland in the fog was the Storstad:

Unfortunately, both of these pictures are faked, and they don't match anyway.

The damage doesn't match, the smokestacks don't match, and the second one doesn't have the name Storstad.

As far as the Lusitania goes, Lord Mersey was accused by many of a cover-up at the time.

It has been a conspiracy theory from the very beginning, though no one I know of has ever taken it as far as I have.

Conspiracy Theories – Library of Rickandria

Although all the evidence points at a total fraud, no one ever reads the evidence that way, of course.

No one in the mainstream is allowed to read evidence logically, you know.

Mersey was elevated from Baron to Viscount for his part in the Lusitania cover-up, and that is admitted by many.

Mersey's son, the 2nd Viscount, married a Seymour of the Marquesses of Hertford, linking us to, 

• the Herveys, Marquesses of Bristol
• the Stewarts, Earls of Galloway
• the Gordons, Marquesses of Huntley

The histories also admit this:

The full report [of the Lusitania inquiry] has never been made available to the public.

A copy was thought to exist amongst Lord Mersey's private papers after his death but has since proved untraceable.

Sure, I mean why keep a record of the proceedings?

That would just be rash.

Why not file it away in the same bin as the NASA tapes, Isaac Newton's college records, and all of Obama's records?

History is at its best when kept word-of-mouth by our trusted Jewish historians.

A Study of History by Miles Mathis – Library of Rickandria

In the US, all claims were heard by Judge Julius Mayer, who had also decided claims in the Titanic case.

Julius Marshuetz Mayer (September 5, 1865 – November 20, 1925) was a United States circuit judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and previously was a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

Whew, that's relief!

I had thought for a moment they might tap a Gentile to be involved here in some capacity, but no.

Good ole Judge Julius Mayer, who had a “safe pair of hands” in which to entrust this decision, was there to make sure the Jews remained fairly represented at 100% in all facets of this hoax.

Thirty-three witnesses who could not travel to the US gave statements in England to Commissioner R. V. Wynne.

Sinking of the RMS Lusitania - Wikipedia

All numerology all the time.

Mayer found with Mersey in regard to all facts.

What did you expect?

In the next section of the history, we find that Germany went along with this hoax, confirming it from their end.

Since it was faked, why would they do that?

Because they were in on it.

The BEER HALL PUTSCH was Faked! – Library of Rickandria

This is just more proof World War I was managed from both sides.

Remember, the same families were running all the countries of Europe, including:

• Germany
• England
• Sweden
• Russia

After WWII, these governors figured out they don't even need to fake these big hot wars:

If you don't believe me, remind yourself what the American response to the event was:

Thomas Woodrow Wilson (December 28, 1856 – February 3, 1924) was an American politician and academic who served as the 28th president of the United States from 1913 to 1921. He was a progressive Democrat who previously served as the governor of New Jersey from 1911 to 1913 and as the president of Princeton University from 1902 to 1910. As president, Wilson changed the nation's economic policies and led the United States into World War I. He was the leading architect of the League of Nations, and his progressive stance on foreign policy came to be known as Wilsonianism.

“Contributions to the arts and sciences, work with charitable and welfare organisations, and public service outside the civil service.” [2]

Although they tell us she was Turner's housekeeper, she was actually of the Every baronets, related immediately to the:

• Flowers
• Talbots
• Mosleys

and Burneys.

The Talbots link us immediately to the Somersets, Dukes of Beaufort, who take us directly back to John of Gaunt.

The Flowers were the Viscounts Ashbrook, linking us to the Spencers and Robinsons.

The Robinsons were also baronets.

Turner's contemporary was the 9th Viscount Ashbrook, who was also a Hamilton.

The Robinsons ran the navy in the late 19th century through Admiral Sir Robert Spencer Robinson, Controller of the Navy and Order of the Bath.

These Robinsons were previously Freinds, changing their name in 1793 to hide their Jewish and German roots.

FREIND - freind meaning - Jewish Genealogy (hebrewsurnames.com)

The Mosleys were also Jewish, the name coming from Moses.

The Everys were previously Herberts, Barons Chirbury of Wales.

They were related to the:

• Russells
• Tracys
• Lyttons

On his page we find this:

In 1915 the Lusitania was torpedoed and sunk by a German U-boat, and an Admiralty inquiry brought serious charges against Turner.

Winston Churchill was directly involved with the case.

Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill KG OM CH TD DL FRS RA (30 November 1874 – 24 January 1965) was a British statesman, military officer, and writer who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945 (during the Second World War) and again from 1951 to 1955. Apart from 1922 to 1924, he was a member of Parliament (MP) from 1900 to 1964 and represented a total of five constituencies. Ideologically an adherent to economic liberalism and imperialism, he was for most of his career a member of the Conservative Party, which he led from 1940 to 1955. He was a member of the Liberal Party from 1904 to 1924.

Although Turner was exonerated, the charges haunted him for the rest of his days, and he lived in seclusion. [7]

Simple:

it could bill the treasury for the fake loss.

All these ship losses are a con on the taxpayer, of course.

Another famous person who faked his death on the Lusitania was Frederick Stark Pearson, an engineer and entrepreneur from Lowell, MA.

He created a “massive business empire” that included railways and power companies in:

• Brazil
• Mexico
• Canada

She was also:

• a Carnegie
• a Campbell
• an Erskine
• a Graham
• a Douglas
• a Beaufort
• a Grey
• a Forbes

and a Lindsay.

These Stewarts were previously Earls of Atholl, taking us straight to the top.

We hit not only the kings of Scotland, but John of Gaunt again.

So that is why we find Pearson on this list.

It is his family connections that explain both his business empire and his links to the other big fakers of the Lusitania.

As you see, he was a cousin of Alfred Vanderbilt.

We are told Pearson's mother was an Edgerly, but his connections above tell me that is a fudge of Egerton.

As in the Egerton-Warburtons, which links Pearson to the Booths above, who were also Warburtons.

So, this fake passenger Pearson was a cousin of the owners of the ship.

Just what you would expect.

Geni tells us Pearson's wife was Mabel Ward, but then scrubs her.

Findagrave also scrubs her.

Findagrave also scrubs the daughter Natalie we found at thepeerage.

Strange, since in his bio above that they admit he was on his way to visit this daughter in England, but then they scrub her anyway.

We do find a Mabel Erskine Ward in the peerage, and since we just saw the Erskines, this is a palpable hit.

It looks like she was previously married to an Allen but had no children with him.

Pearson was then her second husband, but that link has been scrubbed.

She was an Erskine through her paternal grandmother, explaining why Pearson's daughter was able to marry into these top peerage families despite being of an American father.

Plus, the Wards themselves were the Viscounts Bangor.

Also remember that there was a Ward Line of passenger ships at that time, founded by James Otis Ward.

The New York and Cuba Mail Steamship Company, commonly called the Ward Line, was a shipping company that operated from 1841 until liquidated in 1954. The line operated out of New York City's Piers 15, 16, and 17—land which later became the site of the South Street Seaport and also the Manhattan terminal of the IKEA-Red Hook ferry route. The company’s steamers linked New York City with Nassau, Havana, and Mexican Gulf ports. The company had a good reputation for safety until a series of disasters in the mid-1930s, including the SS Morro Castle disaster. Soon after, the company changed its name to the Cuba Mail Line. In 1947, the Ward Line name was restored when service was resumed after World War II, but rising fuel prices and competition from airlines caused the company to cease operation in 1954.

Ward Line - Wikipedia

A Henry Prosper Booth later took over this line.

So, we have a link between the Cunard and Ward lines.

Cunard Line - Wikipedia

William Greene Ward had a mansion/estate next door to the Cunard estate on Staten Island.

Another rich passenger whose body was not found is William Brodrick Cloete, likewise, listed in the British peerage.

Strangely, the peerage does not realize this man died aboard the Lusitania, though it is definitely the same person, being married to a Henley and living in Hare Park.

Thepeerage.com only tells us he died before 1921.

Like Pearson, Cloete was an industrialist involved in railways and mines in Mexico.

Through his wife, Cloete was related to the Parkers, Earls of Macclesfield.

The 6th Earl links us to the Grosvenors and the Leveson-Gowers, taking us straight to the top.

The Leveson-Gowers were Dukes of Sutherland, closely related to the Egertons and Warburtons.

So, we have that link again.

Cloete was another cousin of all these people through his wife.

Didn't anyone ever think it was strange that so many high-ranking cousins of the owners of the ship just happened to be on this particular crossing?

What are the odds?

Actually, the odds against it are astronomical.

Now, Elbert Green Hubbard, who also faked his death.

Elbert Green Hubbard (June 19, 1856 – May 7, 1915) was an American writer, publisher, artist, and philosopher. Raised in Hudson, Illinois, he had early success as a traveling salesman for the Larkin Soap Company. Hubbard is known best as the founder of the Roycroft artisan community in East Aurora, New York, an influential exponent of the Arts and Crafts movement.  Among Hubbard's many publications were the fourteen-volume work Little Journeys to the Homes of the Great and the short publication A Message to Garcia. He and his second wife, Alice Moore Hubbard, died aboard the RMS Lusitania when it was sunk by a German submarine off the coast of Ireland on May 7, 1915.

He was a famous socialist who happened to be anti-union and pro-capitalist.

That isn't possible, so he must be a spook.

You can't be a socialist and be against unions.

We can be sure he is related to the later super-spook Lafayette Ronald (L. Ron) Hubbard.

Lafayette Ronald Hubbard (March 13, 1911 – January 24, 1986) was an American author and the founder of Scientology. A prolific writer of pulp science fiction and fantasy novels in his early career, in 1950 he authored Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health and established organizations to promote and practice Dianetics techniques. Hubbard created Scientology in 1952 after losing the intellectual rights to his literature on Dianetics in bankruptcy. He would lead the Church of Scientology, variously described as a cult, a new religious movement, or a business, until his death in 1986.

Secret Scientology Remastered: Bridge to Total Freedom by L. Ron Hubbard – Library of Rickandria

Elbert's first wife was Bertha Crawford, who has a Wiki page, but no parents there.

Also scrubbed at Geni.

But we may assume she was from the Crawfords of the peerage.

Hubbard was a Reed and a Tait through his mother.

Think John Reed and Sharon Tate.

His son married a Sutherland, think Donald Sutherland.

Donald McNichol Sutherland CC (17 July 1935 – 20 June 2024) was a Canadian actor. With a career spanning six decades, he received numerous accolades, including a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globe Awards as well as a BAFTA Award nomination. Considered one of the best actors never nominated for an Academy Award, he was given an Academy Honorary Award in 2017. Sutherland was a prominent anti-war activist during the Vietnam War era.

The Hubbards in the peerage are barons related to the Egertons and Spencers.

Through the Berties they are related to the FitzGeralds, Dukes of Leinster, and Lennox, Dukes of Richmond.

The 1st Duke of Richmond was a son of Charles II.

So, all the same people again.

The US Hubbards are very well scrubbed, I suppose due to the fame of L. Ron Hubbard.

They don't want you realizing he was descended from these top peerage families.

Hubbard's second wife, who allegedly died with him on the Lusitania, was Alice Moore.

Her mother was Melinda Bush.

Legally, the Hubbards shouldn't have even been on the ship, since their passports had been denied earlier that year, due to a conviction for publishing objectionable material about the war.

But being agents, they didn't let that stop them.

They applied directly to the President for a pardon.

Taft was interrupted in the middle of a cabinet meeting for this and granted the pardon immediately.

William Howard Taft (September 15, 1857 – March 8, 1930) was an American politician and lawyer who was the 27th president of the United States, serving from 1909 to 1913, and the tenth chief justice of the United States, serving from 1921 to 1930, the only person to have held both offices. Taft was elected president in 1908, the chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for reelection in 1912 by Woodrow Wilson after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate. In 1921, President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft to be chief justice, a position he held until a month before his death.

Anything to make sure they would appear on the Lusitania manifest as fake passengers.

So, if you thought from reading history that Hubbard wasn't a VIP, apparently you were wrong.

And don't forget Gardiner Greene Hubbard, who had the same middle and last names as our man Elbert.

Gardiner Greene Hubbard (August 25, 1822 – December 11, 1897) was an American lawyer, financier, and community leader. He was a founder and first president of the National Geographic Society; a founder and the first president of the Bell Telephone Company which later evolved into AT&T, at times the world's largest telephone company; a founder of the journal Science; and an advocate of oral speech education for the deaf.  One of his daughters, Mabel Gardiner Hubbard, married Alexander Graham Bell.

That Hubbard founded AT&T and his daughter married Alexander Graham Bell.

This reminds us that the Hubbards came from the Greenes and the Gardiners, including billionaire Gardiner Greene, who owned large parts of Guyana in the early 1800s.

Gardiner Greene (1753–1832) was a cotton planter and merchant from Boston, Massachusetts who conducted business from his plantation, Greenfield, in Demerara (Guyana) in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Socially prominent in the town of Boston, he owned a house, greenhouse, and garden filled with fruit trees and peacocks on Cotton Hill, opposite Scollay Square. He was also the son-in-law of painter John Singleton Copley.

He was also a big Boston Banker, being involved in the US Bank (Second Bank of the US).

These Gardiners came from Lion Gardiner, East India bigwig who founded the first English settlement in New York.

These Hubbards also link us forward to the Roosevelts and Whitneys.

Samuel Gridley Howe (November 10, 1801 – January 9, 1876) was an American physician, abolitionist, and advocate of education for the blind. He organized and was the first director of the Perkins Institution. In 1824, he had gone to Greece to serve in the revolution as a surgeon; he also commanded troops. He arranged for support for refugees and brought many Greek children back to Boston with him for their education.

This William Green Ward we looked at above was the uncle of Julia Ward Howe, whose husband Samuel Gridley Howe started the Perkins school for the Blind with billionaire Colonel Thomas Handasyd Perkins of slave and opium money.

Colonel Thomas Handasyd Perkins, also known as T. H. Perkins (December 15, 1764 – January 11, 1854), was an American merchant, slave trader, smuggler and philanthropist from a wealthy Boston Brahmin family. Starting with bequests from his grandfather and father-in-law, he amassed a huge fortune. As a young man, he traded slaves in Saint-Domingue, worked as a maritime fur trader trading furs from the American Northwest to China, and then turned to smuggling Turkish opium into China. His philanthropic contributions include the Perkins School for the Blind, renamed in his honor; the Boston Museum of Fine Arts; McLean Hospital; along with having a hand in founding the Massachusetts General Hospital.

Samuel Gridley Howe was also a Howard, telling us Howe=Howard, and linking us to the Howards, Dukes of Norfolk, we see in almost every paper.

T. H. Perkins’ grandnephew William Hathaway Forbes—born on Halloween and died October 11, Chai—then funded Gardiner Greene Hubbard in setting up Bell Telephone, bringing us full circle.

William Hathaway Forbes (1840–1897) was an American businessman. Forbes was born on October 31, 1840, in Milton, Massachusetts. His father, John Murray Forbes, was a French-born railroad magnate.

Frances Stephens (January 27, 1851 – May 7, 1915) was a Canadian philanthropist of Scottish origin and a prominent woman of Montreal society.

Another who faked her death was Frances Ramsey McIntosh Stephens, Montreal socialite and wife of industrialist George Washington Stephens.

George Washington Stephens (22 September 1832 – 20 June 1904) was a Canadian businessman, lawyer, and politician.

Her body was never found either, but just wait to you hear why.

Her body was allegedly found and sent back to Canada, but during the trip back this second ship was also torpedoed and sunk by the same U-boat.

They jokingly referred to this as a double murder.

Except that I would call it a double con job.

Geni, Wiki, and Findagrave scrub her, but we know her parents came from Montrose, Scotland, possibly linking them to the Grahams, Dukes of Montrose.

That is what we would guess, given her inclusion in this Lusitania list.

We do know the McIntoshes of the US and Canada came over first in the 1600s, and they were related to the Houstouns, and through them to the:

• Hamiltons
• Dunbars
• Douglases
• Lyons

and Maxwells.

These Douglases and Hamiltons then link us to the Campbells and Grahams, indicating my guess was right.

The Douglas in the McIntosh line links us to Katherine Stewart, daughter of James IV of Scotland, who married Henry VIII's sister.

Which takes us back to. . . John of Gaunt, in both the Stewart and Tudor lines.

I think that is enough to show that every prominent passenger who allegedly died on the Lusitania was a close cousin, with John of Gaunt as a direct ancestor.

They were also cousins of the Booths who owned the Cunard lines, proving this was another inside job.

Roy Tudor Owen[citation needed] (20 January 1898 – 13 March 1979), known professionally as just Tudor Owen, was a Welsh character actor. Owen is most famous for voicing the role of Towser in the 1961 Disney movie One Hundred and One Dalmatians.

In the Twilight Zone episode “No Time like the Past”, Commander Turner was portrayed by actor Tudor Owen.

And yes, that was his real name!

His wife was a Bennett.

There was a 2015 bestseller on the Lusitania by Erik Larson.

You remember him, right?

The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic & Madness and the Fair that Changed America - Anna’s Archive (annas-archive.org)

He is the one that also wrote The Devil in the White City, about the first serial killer H. H. Holmes.

Herman Webster Mudgett (May 16, 1861 – May 7, 1896), better known as Dr. Henry Howard Holmes or H. H. Holmes, was an American con artist and serial killer active between 1891 and 1894. By the time of his execution in 1896, Holmes had engaged in a lengthy criminal career that included insurance fraud, forgery, swindling, three or four bigamous marriages, horse theft, and murder. His most notorious crimes took place in Chicago around the time of the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893.  Holmes was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of Benjamin Pitezel, his accomplice in several of his cons. However, Holmes confessed to 27 murders, including those of some people who were verifiably still alive. It is believed that he also killed three of Pitezel's children, as well as three mistresses, the child of one mistress and the sister of another. Holmes was hanged on May 7, 1896.

One of my guest writers tore that up here.

H. H. HOLMES: America’s First (Fake) Serial Killer – Library of Rickandria

Wikipedia has a section on conspiracy theories regarding the Lusitania, and they include the belief that the British purposely put the ship in harm's way, to draw the Americans into the war.

Of course, no one has ever proposed the Lusitania was not sunk at all.

Or if they did, that idea has been buried.

The other thing that has been buried is the wreck itself, which is said to exist off the coast of Ireland.

The problem with that is that it is impossible to verify the wreckage as that of the Lusitania.

Why? Because the wreck was purposely attacked by the Royal navy after WWII.

It was very heavily depth charged as well as attacked by hedgehog mines. \

Professor William Kingston of Trinity College, Dublin claimed,

"There's no doubt at all about it that the Royal Navy and the British government have taken very considerable steps over the years to try to prevent whatever can be found out about the Lusitania". [116]

Trinity College Dublin (Irish: Coláiste na Tríonóide, Bhaile Átha Cliath), officially titled The College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth near Dublin, is the sole constituent college of the University of Dublin, Ireland. Founded in early 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I who issued a royal charter, it is Ireland's oldest university and was modelled after the collegiate universities of both Oxford and Cambridge. The terms "Trinity College" and "University of Dublin" are synonymous for administrative purposes, as only one such college was ever established.

Trinity College Dublin - Wikipedia

Hmmm.

And why would the Royal Navy do that?

Well, the only reason to bomb the wreck would be to hide that it isn't the wreck.

Some old ship was scuttled there, but it wasn't the Lusitania.

If it had been, there would have been no reason to bomb it beyond recognition.

The wreck was not salvaged, filmed or even confirmed before the Navy bombed it.

Afterwards, the British sold the wreck to US Navy diver John Light for £1000.

That makes sense, right?

Despite that, the wreck was still never:

• salvaged
• catalogued
• filmed

A newer owner, Gregg Bemis, wished to salvage the wreck for Old Master paintings allegedly in the luxury quarters, including paintings by:

• Rubens
• Rembrandt
• Monet
