On March 12 1913 the Ottoman cruiser Hamidieh raided the port of Shengjin/San Giovanni de Medoua and damaged four merchantmen. They were the SS Trifilia, Chisomali Sifnaiou, Elpis and Verventiotis. Can anyone tell me what the displacement of each of these ships was in grt (gross registered tons also called brt british registered tons)?

Is it possible that these sunken wrecks are some of them?
