Chris,

 

I'm not sure if it helps rene, but what you referenced is from the U.S. official history Series Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships. An updated version, with more detail is available here.

 

Best wishes,

Michael

Hi Chris and Michael

Thank you so much for your help. All these data are very helpful for my project (a graphic novel).

I am focus on this period 1918 till 1930 about the story of this ship. Any information related to this period and this ship will be very helpful for me.

I need for instance documentation about the ports of Brest and Ponta Delgada, the german submarines concerned with the story of Isabel.

Later on the period of Yangtze patrol, images, movies or any kind of medias are very welcome.

Best regards

Rene

Rene,

 

I was in Ponta Delgada last year. There's a good museum that has quite a lot of info about the shelling of the town by a German U Boat.

 

Also a memorial to the Portuguese Navy 1914-1918.
