Leontine Pauline "Ninette" Aubart (often misspelled as 'Aubert') was 24 when she boarded the
Titanic with her maid Emma Sägesser. Aubart was a singer residing in Paris, France.
Aubart occupied First Class Cabin B-35 on the Titanic and held ticket number PC 17477, £69 6s.
Aubart was also the mistress of Benjamin Guggenheim, another First Class passenger.
Aubart managed to escape the sinking Titanic with her maid on lifeboat 9. Upon her arrival
onto the Carpathia, she sent a marconigram to Paris stating that, "I'm saved but Ben is lost."
During the twenties it is said that Aubart gave many rowdy parties that resulted in the police
coming to break them up. She eventually died at the age of 77 in 1964.
