From the Titanic Encyclopedia Message Board.
Someone was looking for some information on "Popcorn Dan."
Some comments:
** Suggested the person look up local papers around Merrill, Wisconsin, from 1912 for stories that weren't covered in major papers.
** Dan was known as "Popcorn Dan" and got that nickname because he would set up a popcorn stand at different public events around Merrill. He lived in Scott's Mansion.
** Another person said the wrong photo of him was being used. The one you see in sources is of his nephew David.
** This set off a lot of discussion as to the correct photo of Dan.
