**Lost Website**
« on: Tuesday 08 February 11 13:25 GMT (UK) »
A long while ago I found a really interesting website about POWs in Japanese camps, I'm sure it was done by the Japanese History something or other.
It listed who was in the camps, where they were from, and why they were in there.
I stumbled across it while looking for info on my OH uncle who was a POW in WW2.

Anyway....I'm sure I posted a link to it on Roots, but I've hunted through my posts and I cant seem to find it....would it have been removed to save space? I'm POSITIVE I shared it on here!!  ??? ???

(Hunting for it cause I fancied another look and cant find it in my favourites!)

Thanks

JJ

Hi Milly,
That wasn't the one, but it still looks useful.
Will have a look.

Thanks
JJ

Both websites are great, thanks so much for posting them,

I'm starting to think I imagined the one I found. Can not find it for love or money.

I know it listed who was in there and what they did, there was a minister and his family from Liverpool!!! :o :o

Thanks for looking both of you and both websites are great!
