Mussalbeh is not near Jerusalem but rather south Jordan valley, not too far north of Jericho. It is on the (high resolution) "map 18" of the OBWH map box of the Egypt&Palestibe volume. The "Imp Camel Brigade" positions are marked in its vicinity. Tell me if you need that section scanned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve fuller Posted 12 August , 2007 Author Share Posted 12 August , 2007 well, that was close then!! I wrongly assumed it was in that area as the man I am studying is buried in Jerusalem cemetery so it serves me right! Probably also explains why I could not see it for looking on any map I studied. Duh! If convenient wroclaw, I would live a scan please. Im on steve@bedfordregiment.org.uk but if too much hassle, really dont worry as Ill grab a pic when I go to Kew next time in a few weeks or so. Either way, thanks for the info though!! Cheers for now ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenbecker Posted 13 August , 2007 Share Posted 13 August , 2007 Mates, Are we talking about the sketch map 26 next to page 357 of the OBWH part one. S.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve fuller Posted 13 August , 2007 Author Share Posted 13 August , 2007 easy for you to say Steve! It was a part of "Map 18" if that helps? Has the river Jordan running vertically along the right side of the section wroclaw sent me ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wroclaw Posted 13 August , 2007 Share Posted 13 August , 2007 Steve! That is a (segment of) large and detailed map included in the "map volume" (I believe now it is on disc) of the OBWH. I guess Mussalbeh is mentioned also in one of the small maps that are in the book itselt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenbecker Posted 14 August , 2007 Share Posted 14 August , 2007 Mates, No worries I think we are talking about the same map which covers the Bridgehead battles and Camel Corps fighting in April 1918. By the way mate someone on the LH Assoc webb sight was after someone with details and maps of the Beersheba area for a visit. His name is Jean Bou and he works for the AWM. I mentioned to contact you but if not you may get in touch with him on the LH assoc webb site or EMail. I think you two should have a lot to talk about.

wroclaw Posted 14 August , 2007 Share Posted 14 August , 2007 Steve! I got this giant scanned in pieces and no "picture puzzle" progran can make a reasonable connection to it.... This is the title of that map: tell me if you need all segments. As for Jean Boe - got his e mail (saw your answer to him at the ALH forum) and he got my reply. He is not "just on a visit" but rather a lecturer in this conference: http://www.ww1-israel.org/UserFiles/Image/118665083443.pdf I will have the right people connect with him. Still wating for his answer. Thank you again. g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
