Could anyone help with the following names, I have French ancestry but unfortunately don't speak or understand French.
These are my great grandparents
Nestor Dequidt 1876-1967
Malvina Waeles 1885-1972
From the village of Godewaersvelde or at least it was where they lived and are now buried, its near the border with Belgium, close to Bailleul and the nearest major city will be Lille.
Any info on getting further back would be fantastic but links to French websites that allow searches would also be good as I could try use translate to try and search for details
TIA
