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.

A Child of the Twenties
A suburban childhood of the Twenties as seen from the Nineteen Ninetiesby John Robert Laws 1921-2008 Part 23
Further Afield Part 3
The highlights of the Naples visit were the late evening view over the lights over the city, from a highpoint on the northern edge with Vesuvius in the background. The ascent of Vesuvius itself and seeing the excavated city of Herculaneum.
The volcano was pretty well behaved at that time and having gone up by the funicular rail car we were able to descend into the enormous crater where a constant roman candle of lava blobs was building a new central cone. Intrepid Italian entrepreneurs were busy pushing coins into the little blobs before they cooled and selling the resulting souvenirs to tourists..jpg)
In contrast to the lively volcano, Herculaneum was many centuries’ dead. With its heavy shroud of volcanic ash shovelled and swept away its slab paved streets peopled with a few groups of tourists were not for me evocative of the crowds of shoving and successful citizens who thronged its streets until the Reaper came with his volcano.
For the same reason, it was not depressing either, it was another museum with fine examples of a Roman town complete with arts and crafts collected on the spot.
Why do I not remember the long journey back, it was just unmemorable or were there too many little bottles with our packed lunches so that we dozed on the wooden seats. Perhaps we just got tired, almost unthinkable in ones teenage years.
======================================
NORWAY The Journey to Norway was different. We went on an old troopship and it was boys only, a big party hundred strong from many schools, no hotel this time we slept in hammocks slung above the tables where we ate by day. It was hot and we had the occasional chance to sleep on deck instead of in the hammocks. The hard deck was just as impossible as the sagging hammocks. At least we learnt that a bed is a luxury..jpg)
Bergen was the first port of call. The ship tied up along the long quay where the town faces out over the water and which seemed to us to be the town centre. The funicular railway took us up to the viewpoint above the town from which the town and its harbour and the fiord running out towards the sea are laid out like a green map with blue water and red roofs with toy boats at rest in the harbour.
We also went into the mountains by way of the railway which climbs its way over to Oslo. The railway the like of which we had never seen before, as it clambered through the steep ascent with the aid of a central rack rail and crawled through tunnels and across rock faces to take us up and out onto the high land. There we walked and saw the ski runs and the big wooden structure of the ski jump all stranded in the grass with not a flake of snow in the hot sunshine.
Despite the rocky terrain, rich grass seemed to be the predominant colour of the countryside as we sailed along the coast and into Sogne Fiord where our ship was dwarfed to a toy again between the towering mountains on either side. Here and there tiny fields of hay were patched into the forest on the mountain waterside.
High prowed boats rowed with long oars used the water as a highway from farm to farm and field to field. At the end of the fiord, we went ashore in the ship's boats and walked up the valley beside the bubbling bouldered river to the foot of the glacier which feeds it. A mountain of rather grubby ice in the blazing hot sunshine turning into sparkling clear water with which we quenched our thirst on the walk back.
The furthest north we went was Trondheim, a little stone town on a hilly site beside the water. No doubt used to visitors, despite the infancy of tourism, the peace did not seem disturbed by the invasion of a few hundred English schoolboys. They had done their share of invading Britain a few centuries ago and were themselves to be invaded by less welcome visitors only two or three years later.
On the ship our amusements were simple, I seem to remember the old English sports day pastime of jousting astride a slippery pole over a canvas pool of water and we had a few homegrown concerts and sing-along’s to disturb the quiet of evening at sea. Not that the North Sea was quiet all the time, there were moments when we lost all interest in food and spent time admiring the view over the rail. It was certainly different from all our other trips,

Dear Ancestor,-
Your tombstone stands amongst the rest, neglected and alone
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.
