Fourth Officer Joseph Groves Boxhall was born in Hull, Yorkshire, on March 23,1884.
Among his earliest berths with the White Star Line was the crack liner Oceanic . He joined her in July 1908 as Sixth Officer, and it was while serving aboard her that he met Charles Lightoller, the only Titanic officer he knew prior to joining the Titanic in Belfast. After spending time on the Australian run in 1911,by the end of the year he was back on the North Atlantic run with the Arabic. He signed off her articles in January 1912, and his next ship was "RMS Titanic".[...]
At 11.40 p.m. on the night of April 14, Boxhall, who had been in his cabin, was walking to the bridge. He heard three bells from the crows nest signalling the sighting of an iceberg ahead, he then heard First Officer William Murdoch call out orders to quartermaster Robert Hichens to put the wheel hard over, and the noise of the engine room telegraphs ordering the reversal of the engines. As Boxhall reached the bridge he saw Murdoch organizing the closure of watertight doors just as a long grinding jar shook the ship. Moments later Captain Smith was at his side asking what had happened. Murdoch explained and Boxhall was told to go down and inspect the forward part of the ship. Boxhall went down but saw no damage but as he continued his tour a steerage passenger handed him a large piece of ice which had been fallen to the deck.[...]
At 12.45 a.m. Boxhall and quartermaster George Arthur Rowe began to fire rockets from an angled rail attached to the bridge. Rowe continued to do so until the rockets ran out around 1.25. Whilst Rowe was thus engaged Boxhall scanned the horizon, he spotted a steamer in the distance, he and Rowe attempted to contact the vessel with a morse lamp but they were unsuccessful. At one point Boxhall sought reassurance from the Captain and asked if he felt the situation was really serious, Smith replied that the ship would sink within an hour to an hour and a half.[...]
Boxhall was put in charge of Lifeboat 2 which was lowered at 1.45am. After the Titanic had gone down he asked the ladies in the boat whether they should go back to help swimmers out of the water, but they said no. The boat was less than two thirds full. During the night Boxhall periodically set off green flares and also rowed. Around 4.00 a.m. the Carpathia was sighted and Boxhall let off a final flare to guide the ship to them. When he finally clambered aboard the Carpathia he was ordered to the bridge and there informed Captain Rostron that the Titanic had gone down at about 2.30 a.m.[...]
Boxhall suffered from Pleurisy in the wake of the disaster, caused (or exacerbated) by exposure in the lifeboats.[...]
Although a rather quiet, taciturn man, Boxhall enjoyed the respect and friendship of many senior figures in the merchant service, among them Commander Grattige who had commanded the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth. When Boxhall was asked to act as a technical advisor to the 1958 film "A Night to Remember" , he asked his friend Grattidge to work with him on the project as he was experiencing some health problems.Members of his family were surprised when Boxhall agreed to assist in the making of the film, as he had been rather reluctant to speak on the subject of the disaster. He was involved in the promotion of the film and attended the premiere at the Odeon Theatre in Leicester Square. In the years after A Night to Remember Commander Boxhall spoke to some researchers and gave a BBC Interview on the subject in 1962.[...]
He died 25 April 1967, age 83 - the last of the Titanic's surviving deck officers to pass away. His remains were cremated and his ashes, according to his wishes, were scattered over the position he had calculated that the Titanic had gone down.

I have to thank you for your Air letter containing cuttings from "Boston Globe" and "Boston Daily Herald" both of Sunday 8 April and both very interesting reading, but I suppose this 50th anniversary of her sinking on 15 April 1912 has again revived this terrible tragedy and I think it rather sad that it should all be churned up again.[...]All this correspondence about the "Titanic" which appears to have flared up this 50th year is getting me down and I am getting to the stage where I have more than I can cope with.
