Many of my ancestors came from Flanders. I seem to remember learning in school a poem about the Poppies of Flanders field. Problem is I cannot remember the author or the title, can anyone help me? I am also looking for anyone looking for PIERRE DE LES PIERRE born about 1540. Also SUSANNE ACHAR born about 1577 Caloenene Pas de Calais, France, Her parents were TOUSSAIN ACHAR & ADRIANE NOIRS. Thanks for the help. Phyl

Try www.emory.edu/ENGLISH/LostPoets/McCrae.html A search on Google for either the author, McCrae, or the poem `In Flanders Fields' will produce numerous results.
