Sépultures de guerre - Ministère de la Défense Les fichiers des sépultures de guerre ont été constitués au moment de la création des nécropoles nationales à la fin de la Première Guerre mondiale. Ils comportent environ 700 000 fiches cartonnées rédigées à la main, dont la saisie informatique a débuté en 1997 et se poursuit à l'heure actuelle. Les fiches originales sont souvent incomplètement remplies et comportent des erreurs, notamment dans l'orthographe des noms et la numérotation des tombes. Compte tenu du nombre de sépultures, il est difficile de procéder à des vérifications systématiques.

Old Cherokee Path From FamilySearch Wiki United States Migration Trails and Roads Old Cherokee Path The Old Cherokee Path connected the Lower Cherokee Indian villages, in particular Tugaloo just southwest of the Savannah River in what is now Georgia (but also villages in South Carolina), with several Indian trails, especially the Great Indian Warpath or Great Valley Road as it was called in Virginia. Historical Background Scots-Irish (that is Ulster-Irish), and German farmers migrating along the Great Valley Road (sometimes called the Great Wagon Road) through Virginia began settling the counties near the north end of the Old Cherokee Path in the 1750s. From the first contact with Europeans the Cherokee Indians had settlements called the Lower Cherokee Villages in the northwest part of South Carolina and part of Georgia. As roads developed in America settlers were attracted to nearby communities because the roads provided access to markets. Route Connecting trails. Modern parallels. Settlers and Records Sources

hvorhenderdet / NUPI An Essay by Einstein -- The World As I See It "How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people -- first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy. A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving... "I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves -- this critical basis I call the ideal of a pigsty. The ideals that have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth. "My political ideal is democracy.
