      My guess is that, due to less effective methods of record keeping, not everyone was immediately identified and declared dead.

      As for why people died BEFORE boarding the Titanic but still count, I’m afraid that I don’t have any non-gruesome theories 🤷

        It had to be built, I’m sure work safety regulations were not a thing back then

        Boat builders. You reckon workers had safety rights in 1900s - 1910s Belfast?

      I like to think that this graph is just a rough representation, not an absolutely accurate drawing.
