If you could see your ancestors All standing in a row, Would you be proud of them? Or don't you really know? Strange discoveries are sometimes made, In climbing the family tree Occasionally one is found in line Who shocks his progeny. If you could see your ancestors All standing in a row, Perhaps there might be one or two You wouldn't care to know Now turn the question right about, And take another view When you shall meet your ancestors, Will they be proud of you? |

Genealogy is my pastime, I shall not stray It maketh me to lie down and examine half buried tombstones. It leadeth me to still courthouses. It restoreth my ancestral knowledge. It leadeth me into the paths of Census Records and Ship Passenger Lists for my Surnames sake. Yea, though I wade through the shadows of Research Libraries and Microfilm Readers, I shall fear no discouragement, for a strong urge is with me. The Curiosity and Motivation, they comfort me. It demandeth preparation of storage space for the aquisition of countless documents. It anointeth my head with burning midnight oil, my family group sheets runneth over. Surely Birth, Marriage, and Death Records shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of the Family History Seeker forever |
