Abstract This paper examines Belgian refugees in Wales during the First World War and local responses to their presence. A case study from a rural, Welsh-speaking area examines how, as the War continued, the refugees became a burden on the dwindling resources of local refugee committees and ultimately had to leave to be re-settled elsewhere. Using digital resources and methods for this study raises issues about fragmentation of sources and the completeness of the archival record, and suggests how digital archives on the Belgian refugee migration may be further developed to enable new insights into local responses to the largest movement of refugees in the early part of the twentieth century.

在 Cymru1914.org 寻找比利时难民:使用数字资源揭示威尔士第一次世界大战的隐藏历史

摘要 本文研究了第一次世界大战期间威尔士的比利时难民以及当地对他们的反应。一个来自威尔士农村地区的案例研究探讨了随着战争的继续,难民如何成为当地难民委员会日益减少的资源的负担,并最终不得不离开去其他地方重新定居。在本研究中使用数字资源和方法提出了关于来源碎片化和档案记录完整性的问题,并建议如何进一步开发关于比利时难民移民的数字档案,以便对当地对最大的难民流动的当地反应提供新的见解。二十世纪初。
