    3. Thank you so much for sending this Joan. My great grandfather, John Henry Cors (or perhaps Johann Heinrich Kors?) was interned at Knockaloe on IoM, but he died at a German convalescent home - Libury Hall in Hertfordshire, in 1916, leaving 12 Children all born in Liverpool! Quite a lot of links to Libury Hall here https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=libury%20hall%20history Marj Ingham Bennett ________________________________ I know from past mails that some listers have German ancestors. In case you don't know the International Red Cross have recently made the index cards of Prisoners of the First World War available (military and civilian). I've found my husband's grandfather and great-uncle here... they were both interned at Knockaloe on IOM. http://grandeguerre.icrc.org/ be prepared to brush off your rusty French or German (that is, if your language skills are as unused as mine) The site includes all POWs and internees, so of interest to more than just descendants of interned Germans!
