France Republique
Question about a memorial paper from 1914-1919 in French, Translation? WW1?
I have a paper thats in french from WWI. Its says 1914-1919 A La Memoire de Evan Williams Burton U.S. Navy Des Etats-unis D’Amerique, Mort Pour La Liberte Pendant La Grande Guerre Hommage De La France Le President del la Republique – (Signature, something fancy, cant read it). Its framed, very old, and has beautiful artwork and border. I assuming the french roughly means In The Memory of Evan Williams Burton (U.S. Navy) something something died for the liberty blah blah honor of the France, The President of the Republic… or something along those lines. Any translation or info on this would be appreciated.
How very interesting – does it look like this one? http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-cartier-wwi-military-115th-keilley-kelley
1914-1919 In memory of Evan Williams Burton of the US Navy who died for Liberty during the Great War. Homage from France. Signed the President of the Republic.
If similar to the one in the picture then it would have been done by Franklin Booth http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Booth
There is another one here:

The text along the top says literally “those who piously died for the motherland have [earned] the right to have crowds kneeling before their coffin”
