I'm currently working on the biography of Jarvis Offutt, a WWI American flyer who was killed in France in 1918. Sources list his place of death at either Valheureuv or Valheureux, France, a community I am unable to locate or find any references for. Would anyone on this WikiProject happen to know if the locality has been spelled incorrectly, if the name has changed sometime in the past century (or it's been abandoned or annexed into a larger community), or if it's simply so insignificant that no mention is listed anywhere? I appreciate any help that anyone can provide. RJASE1Talk17:01, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Tim- I took a quick look on fr.wikipedia and it seems Valheureux is a defunct place name from the Somme, now apparently part of a community called Candas. fr:Valheureux redirects to the Candas article. The Valheureux page links to a category of former Somme communities, which list a few hundred former communities from that department. I'll bet it's what you're looking for--you can go to Google Maps and enter "candas, somme, france" into the search field to see if the location looks right. Hope this helps. -Eric(talk)19:43, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
