So, open your drawers and trunks, leaf through your photo albums, reread the old correspondence of your ancestors... Turn yourself into an explorer and amateur archivist, to enrich in particular our website and our upcoming publications: you rummage around, you set aside, you lend us, we scan and photograph, and we return your loan quickly!








For the time being, it is the valiant poilus of the First World War who interest us: as you know, Laurent Guillemot has traced the lives of the 107: we now know a lot about their lives, and especially their fierce fighting in the trenches.

Ask your relatives: if you don't have any archives on grandfather Emile or uncle Jules, perhaps one of your cousins has some?
