Titanic first-class passenger Frederick Sutton perished when the ship sank in 1912, however some of his personal effects were found and given to his family. Now they are being put up for auction by Henry Aldridge & Son on 22 November 2025. One of the items being auctioned off is a rare first-class Titanic passenger list. While their names are known, the list that was distributed on Titanic has never been seen till now. Also being put up for auction are his personal effects that include a gold seal ring with his initials and a silver whistle.

It was incorrectly reported to the family that his body had been recovered and in Halifax. A letter from them informs that if they want to have his body brought home, they will need to purchase a first-class ticket to send the body home. A second batch of his effects will be auctioned off in 2026.

The first-class passenger list is expected to fetch $100,000 at auction.
