Talk:Joseph Forsyth

Distance from Nismes to Fort de Bitché
From the article "carried prisoner to Nismes, France. The restraint there was not severe, but Forsyth was caught in an attempt to escape, and was thereupon marched in midwinter six hundred miles to Fort de Bitché"

According to google maps the distance from Nismes, France (now Viroinval in Belgium) to Citadelle of Bitche in the Vosges is ~320km, so ~200 miles.

(600 miles is about the the distance from the English Channel to the Mediterranean) Scarabocchio (talk) 08:14, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
