History post-1930s

[edit]

I don't know what happened to this organisation after the 1930s. I suspect the paper mentioned in the further reading section would say, but don't have access to that. Online searches have so far only turned up a mention of the Canadian branch in the 1940s, and the online listings of The Ypres Times only seem to go up to around 1938. There is a reference in a 1978 book by Lyn MacDonald, which I'm reading at the moment: They Called it Passchendaele. In the acknowledgments section she gives thanks to "the Ypres League for permission to quote from the Ypres Times". Presumably that means the organisation was still around in the 1970s. To get any further with this article, this piece of information is needed, so hopefully someone can help. Carcharoth (talk) 15:55, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
