On Marika's site she says there is a tragic story to be told about James ACKERS but I can't get it ... does anybody know the story ? http://groups.msn.com/CanadaWorldWa...hotographs.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=3806 In Memory of Private J ACKERS 171732, 5th Canadian Mounted Rifles Battalion who died on 14 August 1916 Remembered with honour BEDFORD HOUSE CEMETERY
James Ackers is my Great Great Grandfather! His son, James, was my Father's, Father. The link to Marika's site no longer works, but I would really like to know the story to which she is referring.
Unfortunately Annie hasn't been to the site in years, but she did post an image of a newspaper clipping for posterity. Just wanted to point that out in case you didn't see it before, if you click on it, it will pop up in a size big enough to read (you can print it out too if you want).
