Hello, all, I want to contact, the relations / family of an French airman. To give them information about my research. Gustave Hector Nicolas Stanislas. *10-09-1912. French Guyana. +12-08-1983. Paris. Buried, Cementry at Ferte Sous jouarre ( East of Paris ) He was the commander and navigator of an crashed Halifax NA260 and only survivor. Crash 07-02-1945 at Asten /Holland. I have much more information about him. Can we find an foto of his grave, and his children around Paris / Ferte sous Jouarre ?
Normally in France, it is my understanding that graves have to be paid for, otherwise the 'body' is placed in a common grave, so perhaps contact with the cemetery to find out who is paying for the upkeep of the grave TD

Gustave Hector Stanislas. I saw on an website, Andrea Stanislas ( doughter ) replayed, and asked for info about her father. She told, she has one brother and four sisters. I gave my mail address, but she will not have seen it. Acc my search on the web, the Stanislas family is still active in Cayenne /French Guyana, South America. Can somebody give me an link to contact them ? Regards, Gerard. Thank you, Tricky Dicky, for your help and attention.
Gerard I dont have any means of providing you contacts as you ask - but have you tried that Facebrooky thing along with Tweeter - I would suspect that many people today [not me though] use these more commonly than most other forms of communications/media TD
