Please, may anybody tell me in what place or area (coordinates would be perfect) were sunk the italian MAMA FILOMENA (U 64, JUNE 7th, 1917) and the danish JOHANNE (U 34, AUGUST 28th, 1918)?

Thank you very much.

Lloyd's War Losses 1914-1918 lists vessels lost and sometimes specifically where they were lost. In this case they say that JOHANNE (234 GRT)was lost at 37.13 North and 0.55 West,off Carthagena, Spain. This ship was out of Gothenburg for Genoa with wood pulp. Tha MAMA FILOMENA (147 GRT) out of Alicante for Genoa with wine, is only shown as "sunk in the Mediterranean". This Lloyd's does not go into casualties. It is merely a diary of daily losses and cause,where known.

Of the U Boats involved,U34 was later sunk itself on 9.11.1918,and the U64 sunk on 17.6.1918,both in the Mediterranean. This information from Jane's Fighting Ships 1919.

Best wishes
