Paul Delforge (1919-1989) était instituteur en 1939, puis carabinier en 1940. Il échappa aux Allemands et retourna chez lui une fois le pays occupé. Il entra alors dans la résistance. En 1942, il sera arrêté par la Gestapo et purgera un an de travaux forcés à la prison de Leuven. Lorsque la Guerre se termina, il se lança dans la politique sur les listes libérales. Il fut membre du Conseil communal, échevin et bourgmestre. (remark in French, as published)
