Proposed Change: Johannes Ehrhardt (I10307)Tree: Südpfalz / Southern PalatinateLink: http://www.birkenhoerdt.net/getperson.php?personID=I10307&tree=SuedpfalzDescription: Died: Fricourt, Somme, Picardie, FranceFricourt is home to a German WWI cemetery. Most of the fallen were members of the Imperial German 2nd Army.The cemetery was established by the French military authorities in 1920 and concentrates burials from "some 79 communes in the regions around Bapaume, Albert, Combles, the Ancre valley and Villers-Bretonneux". About 5,000 of the burials are mostly in shared double graves; the remainder lie in four communal graves.Somme was created on 4 March 1790.Picardie is french, Pacardy is English.Since Johannes died in Fricourt, I checked the German Cemetery there, no list of names of those buried there.I also checked FindAGrave ... only found a John Albert Ehrhardt who died in June of 1918, the FAG record doesn't say for whom he fought. Am assuming if Johannes was born in Germany he was fighting for Germany and I may be wrong.Mariner's Knoll Genealogy USA
