Henry Lawes
1595-1662
Lord, help me dig into the past
and sift the sands of time
that I might find the roots that made
this family tree of mine
Lord, help me trace the ancient roads, on which our fathers trod, which led them through so many lands, to find our present sod.
Lord help me find an ancient book or dusty manuscript, that's safely hidden now away, In some forgotten crypt.
Lord help me find an ancient book
or dusty manuscript,
that's safely hidden now away,
In some forgotten crypt.
Lord, let it bridge the gap, that haunts my soul when I can't find, that missing link between some name, that ends the same as mine.

Holidays Boats and more Wandering
The attraction of boats also ruled one of our regular outings during the holiday. We always went at least once to Brightlingsea, a slightly scruffy town famous only for boatyards and shrimp teas. It has always been an ocean racing centre but was not particularly prosperous in those days, there were wonderful boats on offer, at giveaway prices. We didn’t buy one.
We just walked in the sun and looked, ate our shrimp tea and perhaps an ice cream, then trundled back to Walton. At Dedham however, another regular outing we could get a rowing boat on the Stour and glide through Constable’s countryside between the pollarded willows in the soft June sunshine. This was I fear, my father’s holiday, again just he and I went boating but then we were off in the car to Flatford for a strawberry tea amongst the wasps beside the bridge. It is all still there but somehow the rural peace is not the same since everyone spouted wheels.
All the countryside was more rural as a much smaller number of townsfolk invaded it every weekend. All the corn was cut with a reaper-binder of course and stood up in stooks in the field.
Until it was cut East Anglia was a mass of red poppies, more beloved by the holidaymaker than the farmer. Farming had been depressed for some years and old cottages were being condemned as unfit for human habitation. It is sad to think it is only the war which brought back a sort of prosperity or at least a brief understanding of the need to grow our own food which now seems to be fading away again.
The thought of the corn takes me back to another little holiday I spent in the countryside. In truth, mum and dad wanted a holiday on their own and Lottie took Mary and me for a week to her parents’ cottage in Bocking which really was rural. The water came from a long-handled pump outside the back door and the loo was by the wash house in the garden. It was late summer but any need for light was met by oil lamps and candles. Little did I know that these were the normal facilities for most of rural England and that for many places they would stay unchanged for another thirty years.It was harvest time and the horse-drawn reaper-binder went round and round the field throwing out sheaves and driving the ever-present rabbits into the centre until they made a run for it and someone got rabbit pie for dinner.
Wages were meagre, but food was important, there was rhubarb under the apple tree and more cabbages than roses in the garden. There were plums in the garden too and home-made wine in the kitchen cupboard set into the wall alongside the black kitchen range.
There were no pavements through the village. There was after all virtually no traffic A few yards along the road on the other side from the cottage a path led down to the lazy river with its carpet of water lilies raising their bright yellow flowers above the dark green leaves, A few cows grazed the meadow beside the river avoiding the buttercups and leaving their squelchy traps for the unwary walker behind them. I didn’t wonder then, what it was like there in the wintertime.
Another little holiday that was different turned up when my Uncle Albert and Aunt Louise were home on leave and were going to spend a little while in a cottage in Cornwall. Their son Frank was a little younger than me, and I was invited to come along so that we could spend some time together. It was the only long train journey I had taken as a small boy, about ten years old I think, although the steam trains were always rushing past the bottom of our garden at home, I was unimpressed by the train journey. Once it had chugged out of Paddington, the countryside rushed by, very different from travelling in the car. Leaving our smoke and smuts behind us we dashed on through green fields until we came to the red soil of Devon, with its sheep smeared with the colour, then into the less lush Cornwall.
The cottage was at Crantock on the north coast but not the bleak and barren part. It was tiny and ancient, just a few stone and thatch cottages and a church, but the memory of it is of the peace of the village and the emptiness of the beach where we were able to swipe a golf ball along without fear of hitting someone.My uncle was reputed to be keen on photography and certainly had an enormous quarter-plate camera which no doubt was capable of taking excellent photographs he must have needed a pantechnicon to carry it around.He was the up-market brother, whereas my dad was the up-to-date brother and had a little folding roll film camera just for holiday snaps.

MORE TOMORROW
Dear Ancestor
Your tombstone stands amongst the rest,
neglected and alone
on polished marble stone
It reaches out to all who care, it is too late to mournYou did not know that I exist, you died and I was bornYet each of us, are cells of you, in flesh, in blood, in bone.Our blood contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own
Dear Ancestor, The place you filled one hundred years agoSpreads out amongst the ones you left who would have loved you so,I wonder if you lived and loved, I wonder if you knewThat someday I would find this spot and come to visit you.
=================================
It reaches out to all who care,
it is too late to mourn
You did not know that I exist, you died
and I was born
Yet each of us, are cells of you,
in flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
entirely not our own
Dear Ancestor,
The place you filled
one hundred years ago
Spreads out amongst
the ones you left
who would have loved you so,
I wonder if you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew
and come to visit you.
