Hershey's Founder had booked to travel aboard Titanic
Founder of chocolate manufacturer Hershey Company Milton S Hershey and his wife in 1911 made bookings to return to US from France on the Titanic, but instead caught an earlier ship. Reports suggest that the pair departed earlier than scheduled due to an emergency at the Hershey factory. Hershey was born 159 years ago on September 13, 1857.
