Dear Fellow Researchers:

This evening I received the message quoted verbatum my signature below, from
a gentleman in Belgium who has undertaken a very noble task as explained
thoroughly in his message.

Because I had not heard of his worthy project on any of the Mailing Lists I
administer or subscribe to I asked him if he wanted me to announce his
project to several mailing lists across Canada.

Johan responded saying that yes he would like the word to be passed......but
he added one caveat. He is currently backlogged with requests from other
commonwealth countries and a delay should be expected.

His is a very generous offer and I am sure most researchers would agree, his
efforts are very commendable.

Please direct all queries to Johan at his address at the bottom of his
message below.

Best regards...*M u r r a y P l e t s c h*

Hello,

I'm a World War 1 researcher from Belgium. For the moment I'm doing a lot of
research for Australians, New Zealanders,Irish, Canadians and British to
locate their family members who were killed during the Great War in Belgium
or France.

If you have any relative who fought in my country during the WW1, I would be
glad the locate him and sent you a picture of his headstone. This is free
of charge.( For searches and pictures in France ask for details).
The only thing I would like in return is his picture.

Why?

If the picture is of good quality then I plastify it and place it next to
the headstone. This way the thousands of tourists who visit these
cemeteries can see who's really buried there and do not just see the lonely,
sad stone.

If you have more questions do not hesitate to contact me

regards

Johan Moors -
