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, 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.

A CHILD OF THE 1920s,
AS SEEN FROM THE 1990s
by
John Robert Laws 1921-2008
Part 1
IN THE BEGINING
The war had been over three years, the Kaiser's War that is. It was late afternoon on Christmas Eve and the sun had gone down for the day, the gaslight on and the fires lit, but of course I don't remember as I was, the early Christmas present for my Mum.
When memory reaches back to it's furthest it is summer, there is a lot of summer in the early years, or so it seems. There are laburnums in flower in the garden, and wooden toys with nodding heads, a swan and a rhino to be pulled along on wheels and always the sound of trains with smoke and steam.
Every morning just after ten there was the Flying Scotsman, to watch go by and then there was shunting and banging all day and night, that one slept soundly through, just as one now sleeps through the noise of the television. The smoke and soot annoyed my mum, but to an infant, it was just an interesting smell which came and went, perhaps a little stronger when one climbed the railway fence to get a better view. A few missing palings made this easy even for the smallest child.
Over the fence was a narrow strip of unkempt grass often burnt in summer when a spark from a passing locomotive set it alight. at other times an unofficial path for railwaymen, children and burglars. The tracks lay about fifteen feet down from the grass, the land held up by a hefty retaining wall. Lots of tracks, maybe a dozen, with another track on a long bridge crossing them at an acute angle and takings trains from one side to the other without touching the fast line.
The land rose on the other side of the tracks, a steep tall grassy bank with a proper footpath along the top beyond the fence and even seats along the top. In the afternoon sunshine, these would be occupied by mums and nannies, with prams while the trains amused the vociferous offspring. It was not till later that I explored these distant parts, a sprawl of suburbia from the late nineteenth century broken here and there by parks and sports grounds.
