Titanic Hoax Solved By DNA : Canadian ‘heiress’ is exposed as fraud

A Canadian woman who claimed to be the daughter of a wealthy entrepreneur, who had perished in the Titanic tragedy with his family, has been proved to be a fraud in DNA tests, according to reports.

Helen Kramer emerged in 1940, calling herself Loraine Allison, a two-year-old toddler who was with her parents Hudson and Bess Allison, and seven-month-old brother Trevor on the Titanic in 1912.

Recent DNA tests conducted by a group of Titanic aficionados show there is absolutely no genetic link between Kramer and the Allison family’s descendants.

The Loraine Allison Identification Project wrote on its website, “We have received the results of the mtDNA testing… The results confirm that Mrs. Kramer was NOT Loraine Allison. Further updates with comments from the Allison and Kramer descendants will follow… as well as an official press release, and where we go from here.”

A reporter for The Telegraph spoke with David Allison, the grandson of Loraine’s uncle, shortly after the news broke.
He told the outlet, “The Allisons never accepted Mrs. Kramer’s claim, but the stress it caused was real. It forced my ancestors to relive painful memories described to me as immeasurable sorrow and unending grief.”

While she was still alive, Kramer denied she had any interest in the Allison’s money. Investigators are still working to determine who Kramer really was before she came forward as Loraine Allison
