On Sunday, Stockton Rush, 61, is one of the five people in OceanGate’s Titan submarine, but it never returned.
A story says that the wife of OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, who went missing Sunday on a tourist submarine that dove to see the Titanic wreckage, is related to two first-class Titanic travelers who died.

The New York Times said that Stockton’s wife, Wendy Rush, is a straight daughter of Isador and Ida Straus. They were among over 1,500 people who died when the famous ship hit an iceberg and sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912.

The Straus was a wealthy couple who had been married for more than 40 years and were traveling first class. When the ship started to sink, survivors said that Ida Straus turned down a spot in a lifeboat. The Times noted that instead, she decided to stay with her husband until the end.

According to the report, their story was told in James Cameron’s imaginary 1997 hit movie “Titanic.” It was about an old couple who stayed in bed together as water filled their room.

The head of the Straus Historical Society, Joan Adler, told the paper that Isador and Ida Straus had a daughter named Minnie Strauss, who in 1905 married Dr. Richard Weil and had a son named Richard Weil Jr.

Adler said that Dr. Richard Weil III, his son, is the father of Wendy Rush.

Stockton Rush, 61, is one of the five people who boarded OceanGate’s Titan submarine on Sunday and haven’t been seen since. Rush was in charge of the 21-foot-long ship, which was supposed to take 8 hours to sink to the Atlantic Ocean floor.

After about an hour and 45 minutes, the sub and the Canadian research vessel Polar Prince lost touch. Around 5:40 p.m., a massive search and rescue effort began off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. This was about three hours after the sub was supposed to return to the surface.

Officials from the United States Coast Guard said Wednesday night that the ship, which only had enough air for 96 hours, has less than 12 hours left.
