When the Titanic slipped beneath the Atlantic on April 15, 1912, it carried more than 1,500 souls into darkness. Six days later, the crew of the cable ship Mackay-Bennett pulled from the icy waters the body of a small, fair-haired boy. With no name to guide them, he was recorded only as Body No. 4 — one of the countless lives lost that night. ⚰️❄️

In Halifax, Nova Scotia, the child was laid to rest beneath a simple stone engraved with just two words: “Unknown Child.” For nearly a century, his grave became a symbol of grief too vast to measure. Visitors came from around the world, leaving flowers 🌹, toys 🧸, and whispered prayers for the little one whose story remained unfinished.

Then, science gave back what history had taken. Through DNA testing, the boy’s name was restored: Sidney Leslie Goodwin, just 19 months old — the only member of his family ever recovered from the sea. 🧬💔

In 2007, a new plaque was placed at his grave, transforming sorrow into remembrance. No longer the “Unknown Child,” Sidney is honored as the beloved son he truly was — a reminder that even in tragedy, every life deserves to be remembered. 🕯️🕊️
