They were immigrants with the hopes and dreams of making their way to new lands for a better life. But those who boarded the SS Valbanera could not know they would be swept away by mother natures fury. The hurricane of 1919 sank the steamer in violent seas. Not a single victim's body was ever recovered. Now located, the so-called "Poor Man's Titanic" sits as a watery grave. The voyage stole hopes of a better future. That was lost, as were the passengers' histories...until now.
