Welcome to the Laws Family Blog
We reach out to all, regardless of Race, Colour, Creed, Gender & Orientation, or National Origin, with support for researching family history and documenting cultural inheritance.
Dear Ancestor
Your tombstone stands amongst the rest, neglected and alone,
The names and dates are chiselled out on polished, marble stone.
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 not entirely 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.
That someday,
I would find this spot and come to visit you.

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.
that missing link between some name that ends the same as mine
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.
