Excellent presentation but I’m very sorry it ever happened.

Lot of the survivors who lost family packed up and left for other areas...many to the United States. I imagine they'd want to try and forget as much as they could.


Why do you suppose they haven't returned?



Maybe because anyone old enough to leave in 1917-1918 would be long dead by now??


I suppose I should have said 'didn't' return. Any idea?
