Canadian War Graves in Wales Get QR Codes

Jean-Yves BAXTER at Geneanet tells us that the Canadian War Graves at St Margaret's Church, Bodelwyddan, Wales now have been given QR (Quick Response) codes which can be scanned by using smart phones. The codes were created by community-based information project called HistoryPoints.org.
Their website is at www.historypoints.org

It is believed that the soldiers died of the flu epidemic that raged around the world at the end of the First World War.
