Paul Firmin Forel, grand-père du contributeur, est né le 6 février 1880 à Montélimar dans la Drôme. Il se marie le 2 mars 1908. Mobilisé, il est incorporé au 261ème régiment d'infanterie à la 1ère compagnie de mitrailleuses, avec le grade de sergent. Dans une lettre datée du 9 avril 1916, il écrit à un ami engagé comme lui sur le front. Il s’agit de sa dernière lettre. Il lui décrit en termes très mesurés sa vie au front et les nouvelles qui lui sont parvenues de l’arrière. Il se dit « dans un assez mauvais secteur où toutes les inventions de ces C… de Boches nous sont servies. ». Il pense à l’avenir de sa famille s’il est tué, et accepte d’être proposé comme sous-lieutenant dès qu’une place sera vacante : « Une seule chose m’a tenté et je crois faire œuvre de prévoyance vis-à-vis de ma famille. En cas d’un accident et il y a danger continuellement sur le front et pour tous, ma famille au moins pourra profiter d’une meilleure pension et ne sera pas dans la misère. » Blessé lors de la bataille de Verdun, il décède à Thiaumont (Meuse) le 30 juin 1916 des suites de ses blessures. || 1.
