(Ypres) Gentlemen, I have a request. Together with the Dutch WW I forum member Erik Croimans, I'm working on a book on all the WW I cemetaries in West-Flanders (that is the wide Ypres region and coastal area of Flanders). This means all the CWGC cemetaries, but also the Belgian, French, German, US, Italian ones. We are now 550 pages far, and should get published by the end of 2008. We want to include as much information about soldiers as possible, and especially personal stories. If any of you have a relative resting in the Flanders Fields, and you want to share his story and/or a photograph with us, it would be much appreciated, and you will be duly credited for it in the book. I can be reached at regulusone@skynet.be or regulus1@military.com Sincere thanks, Johan Back to top Regulus1 Joined: 03 Apr 2007 Posts: 89 Posted: Mon Sep 03, 2007 11:01 am    Post subject: This is the list concerning cemeteries we are researching : Abeele Aerodrome Military Cemetery Adinkerke Churchyard Extension Adinkerke Military Cemetery Aeroplane Cemetery Artillery Wood Cemetery Bard Cottage Cemetery Bas Warneton Communal graveyard Bedford House Cemetery Belgian Battery Corner Cemetery Berkshire Cemetery Extension Bethleem Farm East Cemetery Bethleem Farm West Cemetery Beveren Ijzer Churchyard, Birr Cross Roads Cemetery Blankenberge communal cemetery Blauwepoort Farm Cemetery Bleuet Farm Cemetery Boesinghe Churchyard Bovekerke churchyard Brandhoek Military Cemetery Brandhoek New Military Cemetery Idem nr 3 Bredene churchyard cemetery Bridge House Cemetery Buffs Road Cemetery Buss House Cemetery Buttes New British Cemetery Buttes New British Cemetery (N.Z.)

There is quite a bit of info posted against those two memorials. \Paul Back to top Regulus1 Joined: 03 Apr 2007 Posts: 89 Posted: Mon Sep 17, 2007 6:22 pm    Post subject: Paul, Thank you very much for this ! Exactly what we are looking for, as it becomes really interesting if we can make the link to the home town and/or another memorial. Now I have another question, can I use the material ? Photo's ? Of course you will be credited in the book for your help. If ok, could you PM your full name ?
