A special find

On my way to Library and Archives Canada for a meeting I found myself walking from the bus with Wayne W Walker, formerly Director of the Ottawa Stake Family History Centre who introduced me to family history research at the FHC many years ago. He told me he was working on a personal project concerning WW1 servicemen and servicewomen from his native Digby County in Nova Scotia.

in 1998 Wayne told one of the most intriguing family history research stories I have ever heard. It was printed in Anglo-Celtic Roots, BIFHSGO's quarterly chronicle, and is available as a Classic on the BIFHSGO website, under the title A Special Find, for your enjoyment.
