BiographyAnn Elizabeth "Lizzie" Isham was born on January 25, 1862, in Chicago, Illinois, the first child and eldest daughter of Edward Swift Isham, an American lawyer and politician from Vermont, and Frances "Fannie" Burch.[3] Her father established a law firm with Robert Todd Lincoln, son of former US President Abraham Lincoln, called Isham, Lincoln & Beale in Chicago, Illinois.[4][5] Initially Isham lived in Chicago and was a member of the Friday Club and the Scribbler's Club.[4] In 1903 she moved to Paris and lived with her sister, Frances Isham, who had married Harry Shelton.[4] Isham's brother, Edward Isham, lived in New York City and Isham was going back to the United States to spend the summer with him. She boarded at Cherbourg on April 10, 1912.[4][5] Her cabin (C-49) was next to that of Colonel Archibald Gracie, although he did not remember ever seeing her. Isham was said to have been on board a lifeboat ready to sail away when she was told that she was unable to bring her dog, a Great Dane, on board with her. She chose to get off the lifeboat. There is no actual evidence for this, however. Isham was one of four first class women who died in the disaster, and her body was never identified. A few days later, a passenger on a passing ship reported seeing a woman's body floating in the ocean and holding on to the body of a large dog.[6] A memorial to her was erected by her family in Vermont.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Miss Ann Elizabeth Isham|url=https://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-victim/ann-elizabeth-isham.html|website=encyclopedia-titanica|accessdate=31 December 2017}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Isham, Ann Elizabeth}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Castaldo|first1=Nancy|title=Sniffer Dogs: How Dogs (and Their Noses) Save the World|date=2014|publisher=Houghton Mifflin Harcourt|page=5|url=https://books.google.it/books?id=tBd0AwAAQBAJ&pg=PA5|accessdate=31 December 2017}} 3. ^{{cite journal|title=Death Notice (14)|journal=New York Times|date=1912|url=https://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/death-notice-15.html|accessdate=31 December 2017}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal|title=ANXIETY FOR MISSING ONES|journal=Chicago Daily Tribune|date=1912|url=https://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/anxiety-for-missing-ones.html|accessdate=31 December 2017}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Hill|first1=Robert|title=A LITTLE KNOWN STORY OF THE LAND CALLED CLEARING|date=2013|publisher=Lulu.com|page=134|url=https://books.google.it/books?id=5PsUBQAAQBAJ&pg=PA134|accessdate=31 December 2017}} 6. ^{{cite book|last1=Croft|first1=Malcolm|title=Super Dogs: Heart-warming Adventures of the World's Greatest Dogs|date=2014|publisher=Summersdale Publishers LTD - ROW|page=85|url=https://books.google.it/books?id=purzCQAAQBAJ&pg=PT85|accessdate=31 December 2017}} 4 : 1862 births|1912 deaths|RMS Titanic's crew and passengers|Victims of the RMS Titanic |
