Welcome on the Adoptiegraven | Database website. On this website we try to collect information about the fallen American soldiers, who are buried or listed on the Walls of Missing at the overseas American War Cemeteries Ardennes, Henri-Chapelle and Margraten. With this database we want to keep the memories alive to the soldiers, who gave their lives for our freedom. Because every soldier has his own story.

As you can see on our website: the lists of names of the soldiers buried at these cemeteries aren't completed. If you have any information about one of more soldiers or photos, you can send it us. All information and photos are very appreciated. We will make that the information will be listed on the website. More information about how to contact us and how to send us information can be found on the page About us. Thank you very much! We look forward to hearing from you!

The website is devided in three sections: one for the American War Cemetery Ardennes, one for the American War Cemetery Henri-Chapelle and one for the American War Cemetery Margraten. To go to a section, click on the name of the Cemetery in the menu. You will be directed to a list of names of soldiers. To find more information about a soldier, click on his name.

Please visit this website regularly for the latest updates. New soldiers are almost daily added to the database..
