At The Henry Ford: Tickets to Saturday's special exhibit, 'Titanic, The Artifact Exhibition' were sold out, but as of Saturday night they were still available Sunday. The traveling exhibition features 10,000 square feet of artifacts and re-creations. Tickets are $22-$27; the Henry Ford is open 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

Online: We asked Patch contributor Tiffany Dziurman-Stozicki, author of The History Reporter, for her advice on historical tidbits about the sunken ship. She suggested this brief video about the Titanic inside the National Archives; Titanic facts from The History Channel; and the Titanic exhibit company.

Where were they going? Dziurman-Stozicki also mentioned this list from Wikipedia that lists the passengers and also shows their ultimate destinations (some were bound for Michigan).
