Britain Remembers: The First World War Project Map:
Who Do You Think
You Are? Magazine? have created a central map where people can list and find out about projects
near them or where their ancestors lived. First World War Project Map
The site states that During the
centenary of the First World War, thousands of volunteers across the country
will be working on different ways to remember those who lived, worked and
fought during 1914-1918. There are hundreds of projects already in progress –
some big, some small, but all deserving recognition.
WDYTYA will be Publicising new additions to the map in the
magazine, in their Weekly Newsletter on Facebook and Twitter throughout
the next four years.
