Welcome! One of the most exciting things about history is the wealth of human stories hidden just beneath the surface of a place, object or epitaph. This website aims to give new life to a few of those lost & found stories, and to inspire others to uncover and research some lost & found stories of their own.

How did a soldier of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force come to be buried in a small Cornish village, on the other side of the world?

If you would like any more information about a particular story or if you have some information to share, I'd love to hear from you.
