Robert De Lafregeyre: Algerian War Of Independence.

Battle Of Vimy Ridge Dept: Among the crowd of several hundred people marking the 95th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge at the cenotaph in front of Old City Hall on Monday were Hene de Tienda y de Robert de Lafregeyre and her husband Jeme, according to The Star. Hene, 62, has multiple sclerosis and uses a wheelchair. Jeme, 73, is a veteran of the Algerian war of independence. Hene was in Toronto to celebrate Easter, she said, but as a retired history teacher she felt it was important to attend the ceremony and to some, it s the moment Canada became a nation. But you don t have to be Canadian to recognize its importance. The couple hails from La Cavalerie, a town of about 900 people in southern France. The long last name is due to Jes royal ancestry.
