Clio,

U 62 sank four ships in December 1917:

OLDFIELD GRANGE, GBR, 4653 grt, 11/12/1917, 30 miles NE Tory Isl. 55°46'N, 07°56'W
HARE, GBR, 774 grt, 14/12/1917, 7 miles E Kish LV
FORMBY, GBR, 1282 grt, 15/12/1917, Caernarvon Bay
CONINGBEG, GBR, 1279 grt, 17/12/1917, Irish Sea

I may be able to get more exact locations from U 62's KTB. Note that FORMBY and CONINGBEG are listed as missing in "Lloyd's War Losses" -- so no survivors were recovered.

Best wishes,
Michael
