There is some confusion about this grave - the cemetery database states that Charles James Black, born in March 1889 in Campbell, Petersborough, Ontario, died on a Princess ship on October 18, 1918, and FindaGrave expands that to state that he drowned in the wreck of the C.P.R. steamship Princess Sophia, though she sunk on October 25, 1918.
