Sorry. Responded to the wrong post of yours.

We visited the museum in town and the memorial park when passing through town without knowing I was a descendent. Only put it together a week later when going through my family history papers. Now I want to go back. Great grandfather gave one of his sons (my uncle) the middle name “Flood”.
Not sure if you’ve been to the museum. But as a descendant of a victim, I’d guess you’d find the artifacts there quite moving.
