Lillian Augusta Goodwin was born in Newington, Middlesex, England on 12 March 1896.
She was the daughter of Frederick Joseph Goodwin (b. 1870), a printer and compositor, and Augusta Tyler (b. 1868), natives of Surrey and Middlesex respectively who had married on 25 December 1894.
She first appears on the 1901 census living with her family at 4 Exeter Road, Edmonton, Middlesex and on the 1911 census at Watson Court, Watson's Yard, High Street in Melksham, Wiltshire. By 1912 it seems the family were back living, at least temporarily in London at 10 Vernon Street, Fulham.
Several of her father's siblings had emigrated to the USA and settled in Niagra, New York. Her uncle Thomas Goodwin notified the family of a position for her father at the big power station at Niagra and plans were made for the family to settle there. Funds for travel were borrowed from several of her uncles and aunts.
The family had originally planned to cross on another steamer but the coal strike changed their plans and they were transferred to the Titanic. They boarded Titanic in Southampton on 10 April 1912 as third class passengers (ticket number 2144 which cost £46, 18s).
Like most large families travelling in third class, especially those with teenage boys, the entire family was lost in the sinking.∼Third class passenger on the Titanic. Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Goodwin. She and her entire family perished in the sinking.∼16 Years old
