Story Description
En 2009, en vidant le grenier d'une tante disparue... dans un carton à chaussures je retrouvais des documents dont une lettre... une lettre datée du 1er Août 1014 destinée à une petite fille nommée paulette et écrite par son père André MOREAU qui rejoignait son régiment, le 237ième RI pour les raisons bien sombres de cette période. Près d'un siècle plus tard, la force du chant des mots était encore intacte et me faisait monter les larmes aux yeux. Cet homme n'était autre que mon arrière Grand père qui devait disparaitre sur le champ de bataille du Grand Couronné au Sud Est de NANCY quelques jours plus tard le 25 Août 1914 à COURBESSEAUX comme le prouve l'avis de décès retrouvé aussi dans le vieux carton. Je ne pouvais rester insensible, si cette lettre disparaissait, son souvenir allait d'évanouir à jamais. J'ai entrepris des recherches avec passion, bien décidé de suivre sa trace... après bien des démarches, cette année, le 25 Août 2014, un siècle après, jour pour jour, je me trouvais dans la plaine de COURBESSEAUX / CHAMPENOUX où il avait combattu et disparu. Je me suis imprégné de ses paysages qui se sont reconstitués au fils du temps mais qui gardent de larges cicatrices à ciel ouvert. De plus durant ce mois d'Août 2014 une plaque a été déposée sur le monument aux morts du village de sa naissance. Ainsi son souvenir restera, il ne sera oublié ni par sa famille, ni par son village. Cela me rend heureux !Lettre du 1er Août 1914 Courrier au front Avis de décès divers documents Monument aux morts. Photo de MOREAU André Gabriel Caporal au 237ième RI

English Translation
In 2009, when emptying the attic of a missing aunt ... in a shoebox I found documents including a letter ... a letter dated August 1, 1014 intended for a little girl named Paulette and written by her father André MOREAU who joined his regiment, the 237th IR for the very dark reasons of this period. Almost a century later, the strength of the song of the words was still intact and brought tears to my eyes. This man was none other than my great-grandfather who was to disappear on the battlefield of Grand Couronné in the South East of NANCY a few days later on August 25, 1914 in COURBESSEAUX as evidenced by the death notice also found in the old one. cardboard. I could not remain insensitive, if this letter disappeared, his memory would fade forever. I undertook research with passion, decided to follow in his footsteps ... after many steps, this year, on August 25, 2014, a century later, to the day, I was in the plain of COURBESSEAUX / CHAMPENOUX where he had fought and disappeared. I immersed myself in its landscapes which have been reconstituted over time but which still have large scars in the open. In addition, during this month of August 2014 a plaque was placed on the monument to the dead in the village of his birth. Thus his memory will remain, he will not be forgotten by his family, nor by his village. That makes me happy !

Enrichment Mode
Edit your workspace view by using the top-right menu.
You can have the white Activity Panel docked to the right (default) , to the bottom , or as an independent overlay . If you just want to view the image, you can hide the panel using the minimise button , and then re-open it with the pen button. Adjust the size and position of your Activity Panel according to your preferences.
You enrich documents by following a step-by-step process.
Make sure you regularly save your enrichments in each step to avoid the risk of losing your work.
Step 1: Transcription
To start a transcription, select the transcription tab at the top menu of the Activity Panel. Click inside the box underneath the heading TRANSCRIPTION and start writing your transcription. When needed, use the toolbar to format your text and to add special characters and tables. A guide to the transcription toolbar is available in the Formatting section of this tutorial.
Identify the language(s) of the text using the dropdown list under the transcription box. You can select multiple languages at once.
If the item has no text to transcribe, tick the checkbox ‘No Text’.
Once you have finished your transcription, click SAVE.
Step 2: Description
You can add a description to the item underneath the Transcription section.
The first task is to identify what type of document the item is: a handwritten or printed document, a postcard, photo, drawing and/or part of a diary. Tick the category which best applies to the item. Multiple categories can be selected at once.
The second task is to write a description of the contents. Click inside the box underneath the heading DESCRIPTION. Here, you can write what the item is, what it is about, and specify the images and objects that appear in the item.
Identify the language of the description text that you wrote using the dropdown list underneath. You can only select one language.
Once you have finished your description, click SAVE.
Step 3: Location
If you find a location mentioned or recognise a place in the item, you can create a geotag and pin it to the item map. Multiple locations can be attached to the item. To tag locations, select the tagging tab at the top menu of the Activity Panel. Click the plus next to the heading LOCATIONS. Type the location into the search bar and select the result that best applies. A new pin will be placed into the map. The location name should be a clear georeference, e.g. a country, city or address. Make adjustments to the location name if necessary. You can also adjust the position of the pin by dragging it on the map. If you want to add further details to the location, you can write a (short) description. This could include extra information about the geotag (e.g. the building name or a significant event that took place at the location) or the relevance of the place to the item (e.g. the hometown of the author). You can also add a Wikidata reference to link the location to a stable source. Search for the reference using the Wikidata fields. Once you have finished your location tag, click SAVE. You can find the place(s) tagged to the item in grey at the bottom of the Location(s) section.Step 4: Tagging
Below the Locations section is the Tagging section, where you can add the following annotations:
Document Date:
Here, you can add dates that correspond to the item. This could include the dates mentioned in the text (e.g. in diary pages), the date of a related historical event (e.g. the end of WWI), or when the item was created (e.g. from a dated signature on an illustration). You can either define this as a single date or as a longer time frame.
To tag dates to the item, write the start and end dates in DD/MM/YYYY format in the fields or select the dates by clicking on the calendar.
If you only have one date to add, insert the same date into both start and end fields.
If you don’t know the exact days, you can also tag the date on the scale of months (MM/YYYY) or years (YYYY).
Once you have finished your date tag, click SAVE DATE.
People:
People mentioned as creators or subjects in the item can also be tagged. Depending on the information you might have, you can enter the person’s first and last names, as well as their dates of birth and death. There is also the option to write a short description of the person, explaining who they are or their relevance to the item, e.g. the person’s occupation or their relation to another tagged person.
Multiple people can be tagged to one item.
Once you have finished your person tag, click SAVE.
Keywords:
Here, you can freely add keywords related to the topic and content of the item. This could include particular themes (e.g. art, music, war), subjects (e.g. children, cooking, France), or particular historical affiliations (e.g. 20th century, Austro-Hungarian Empire, Fall of the Iron Curtain).
Multiple keywords can be added and they can be written in any language.
Write your keyword tag into the field and click SAVE.
