Summary edit

Description
English: Another mystery shipwreck for you! Apparently these two salty old sea dogs were captain and first mate on the Hansa. We have a few Poole photos from around November 1900 of the wreck of the Hansa, although none of them look particularly wrecked - probably more a case of running aground? Think it might have taken place off Tramore, Co. Waterford.

Answers on a postcard as usual please, if you have any information!

From the "Sacramento Daily Union", Volume 98, Number 75, 4 November 1899
A dispatch from Waterford, Ireland, states that the German bark Hansa, of 1,198 tons, Captain Calcalera from St. Johns, N. F., September 30th, for that port, has stranded during a gale at Creadenhead and filled with water. All on board were saved.
(Possibly suggesting that one of the seamen pictured is the "Captain Calcalera" mentioned...)

Date: November 1899?
