Authorities have identified 'Baby Doe', who was found dead on a Boston Harbor beach last month, as two-year-old Bella Neveah Amoroso Bond - the daughter of Rachelle Bond (pictured together, main, in a Facebook photo).

The twin-screw U-boat 110 was readying an attack on a convoy of merchant vessels when her periscope was sighted, only 50 yards away, and she was forced to the surface by Allied depth charges.

The relentless attack caused the U-Boat to sink off the north east coast of England, not far from the town of Hartlepool, on July 19, 1918. She was recovered later that year and before being sold for scrap a series of photographs were taken providing a rare glimpse of the U-Boat's mechanics.
