During the 2007 - 2009 school term, students in Mr. Mark Perry’s Grade 11 modern history class at Hampton High School conducted meticulous research, using military files, battalion war diaries, and other key resources to write the draft narratives of 26 First World War soldiers whose names appear on their local cenotaph at Veteran’s Park, Hampton, New Brunswick. A smaller group of volunteer student-researchers then formed the HHS Memoria Military Heritage Project and worked for an additional five months to edit and refine the original drafts and to write the history of the key Canadian battles during the First World War. The students collected photographs, letters and other documents from community and family members in order to enhance the stories. The biographies were then written into the context of the war. The result of this work is this book titled Hampton Remembers that we hope inspires others to discover, reflect and remember…comperio, cogito, memoria.

LIJSSENTHOEK MILITARY CEMETERY Belgium
Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery is located about 12 kilometres west of Ieper town centre, on the Boescheepseweg, a road leading from the N308 connecting Ieper to Poperinge.
From Ieper town centre, the Poperingseweg (N308) is reached via Elverdingsestraat, then over two small roundabouts in the J. Capronstraat. The Poperingseweg is a continuation of the J. Capronstraat and begins after a prominent railway level crossing. On reaching Poperinge, the N308 joins the left hand turning onto the R33, Poperinge ring road. The R33 ring continues to the left hand junction with the N38 Frans-Vlaanderenweg. 800 metres along the N38 lies the left hand turning onto Lenestraat. The next immediate right hand turning leads onto Boescheepseweg. The cemetery itself is located 2 kilometres along Boescheepseweg on the right hand side of the road.
From Calais, take the motorway A16 signposted Dunkerque/Lille. At Dunkerque take the motorway signposted Lille/Ypres, the A25. Leave the motorway at Junction 13, the village of Steenvoorde. Follow the D948/N38 signposted Ieper/Poperinge. After approximately 8-10 kilometres Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery will be signposted off to the right.
