GW Billington Posted 1 February , 2018 Share Posted 1 February , 2018 I wonder if anyone has copies of trench maps from the Sint Jin - Wieltje area of Ypres around the dates shown? The War diaries mention a raid on the German trench Kaiser Wilhelm around this time and I'd like to field walk the area where my Grandfather was for these 5 months. Any help greatly appreciated I am going to the area in August this year so if anyone would like headstone photographs from either Oxford Road, Weltje Farm or Buffs Road cemeteries then just ask and I'll do my best Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevmc Posted 1 February , 2018 Share Posted 1 February , 2018 Hello Andy I include an extract of Map 78NW for 28 Jan 1918 showing Wieltje and parea. The full map on McMaster web site here: http://digitalarchive.mcmaster.ca/islandora/object/macrepo%3A71408/-/collection The download options are near the bottom. I downloaded the Tiff file at nearly 1GB and then converted to jpg which is less than half the size .There are others. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
