The 23rd Psalm for Genealogists
The 23rd Psalm for Genealogists
Genealogy is my pastime...
I shall not stray,
It maketh me to lie down
and examine half buried Tombstones;
It leadeth me into still Courthouses,
It restoreth my Ancestral Knowledge;
It leadeth me into the Paths of Census Records,
and Ships Passenger Lists for my surnames' sake;
Yes though I wait through the Shadows,
of Research Libraries and Microfilm Readers,
I shall fear no Discouragement,
for a Strong Urge is with me.
The curiousity and Motivation,
they Comfort me;
It demandeth preparation of Storage Space
for the Aquistition of Countless Documents;
It anointeth my Head with burning Midnight Oil,
My Family Group Sheets runneth over.
Surely Birth, Marriage and Death dates
shall follow me all the Days of my Life,
And I shall dwell in the House
of a Family History Seeker Forever.
