Brambleleaf - 9/6/42 Torpedoed in convoy AT49 by U559,damaged, 13 dead, towed Alexandria, repaired, hulked ; 15/9/44 suddenly sank at stern; total loss.
Source - The World's Merchant Fleets 1939 by Roger W. Jordan.

On a personal note - The name is well known to me, my father was aboard her on passage in N. Atlantic on 11/11/1918 when WW1 ended.
