U-5 and U-69

Would any of you happen to have images of U-5 or U-69? I have found 1 photo of U-5 in Kiel (Wikipedia), and one, that I believe is incorrectly labeled as U-9, in Gordon Williamson's U-boats of the Kaiser's Navy (pg 7). The bottom boat is certainly not U-9 and looks like a U-5 (the exhaust stack is a dead giveaway). My distant cousins were officers on these boats. One was the watch officer on U-5, the other, a torpedo officer on U-69. I have some nice photos of them, and their histories. I would post their photos if I could!
