She boarded the Titanic at Southampton as a second class passenger and the "wife" of Harry Faunthorpe. However, it is thought that she was in fact his mistress. They told fellow passengers they planned to honeymoon in California. They bought ticket number 2926 for £26. "'She was asleep, she says, at the time of the collision, but awakened by the shock. When she rushed upon deck she was ordered into a lifeboat, but feared to trust herself in one of the frail craft. While officers with drawn revolvers issued their orders, one of the men, she says, forced her bodily into the second boat...." - The Evening Telegraph, April 26, 1912 Mrs Wilkinson survived the sinking.
