LAWS FAMILY REGISTER

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.

Henry Lawes
1595-1662

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 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
That someday I would find this spot and come to visit you.

North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland Welcome to the Laws Family Register. A Child of the Twenties A suburban childhood of the Twenties seen from the Ninteen Nineties by my late father John Robert Laws 1921-2008 Part 16 Holidays 1, Holidays at that time meant the seaside, and the seaside meant the East Coast, Sunshine, East winds sand, and an icy grey sea. June was the preferred month, until school became important enough to interfere. My mother packed vast quantities of clothing in a big cabin trunk, which must have gone on ahead; it certainly didn’t come in the car with us. It took a good three hours to cover seventy odd miles to the coast. Bypass was an almost unknown word and certainly wasn’t applicable to even the Essex county town of Colchester, the first time of two, that we went that way. One was built in the next couple of years but now some sixty odd years later has been virtu...
