It has the most complete list I have found, including the passengers on a train which was in Johnstown at the time. But he might have been among the casualties anyway. There were a lot of people unaccounted for so I'm sure there were a lot of unknowns as well.<br /><br />My grandfather, his parents, and his brothers, as well as his aunts and their families all survived. We grew up with his story and I just learned his brother's account from a second cousin.
