Thanks Betty, Family History Research is addictive. Every time something new is discovered it creates more questions. I have been accused of visiting more dead relatives in the cemeteries than the living relatives when I visit Southern IL. Bob -----Original Message----- From: elvis500 <[email protected]> To: Franklin Co. <[email protected]>; Jefferson Co. Il. <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Jul 9, 2013 9:40 pm Subject: [ILFRANKL] Thought yu all would like this GRANDMA HAS A DCISEASE There's been a change in Grandma, we've noticed her of late. She always reading history or jotting down some date. She's tracking back the family, we'll all have pedigrees. Oh, Grandma's got a hobby - she's climbing Family Trees. Poor Grandpa does the cooking, and now, or so he states, "That worst of all," he has to "wash the cups and plates." Grandma can't be bothered, she busy as a bee, Compiling ge-ne-al-ogy---for the Family Tree. She has no time to babysit, the curtains are a fright, No buttons left on Grandpa's shirt, the flower bed's a sight. She's given up her club work and the soaps on the TV, The only thing she does now-a-days is climb the Family Tree. She goes down to the courthouse and studies ancient lore, We know more about our forebears than we ever knew before. The books are old and dusty, they make poor Grandma sneeze, A minor irritation when you're climbing Family Trees. The mail is all for Grandma, it comes from near and far, Last week she got the proof she needs to join the D.A.R.! A monumental project everyone agrees, All from climbing up those wreched Family Trees. Now some folks came from Scotland, some from Galway Bay, Some were French as pastry, some German all the way. Some went West to stake their claims, some stayed by the sea. Grandma hopes to find them all, as she climbs the Family Tree. She wanders through the graveyard in search of date and name, The rich, the poor, the in-between, all sleeping there the same. She pauses now and then to rest, fanned by a gentle breeze, That blows above the Fathers, of all our Family Trees. There are pioneers and patriots, mixed in our kith and kin, Who blazed the paths of wilderness and fought through thick and thin. But none more staunch than Grandma, who eyes light up with glee, Each time she finds a missing branch for the Family Tree. Their skills were wide and varied, from carpenter to cook, And one, alas, the records show, was hopelessly.....a crook. Blacksmith, weaver, farmer, judge - some tutored for a fee.

GRANDMA HAS A DCISEASE There's been a change in Grandma, we've noticed her of late. She always reading history or jotting down some date. She's tracking back the family, we'll all have pedigrees. Oh, Grandma's got a hobby - she's climbing Family Trees. Poor Grandpa does the cooking, and now, or so he states, "That worst of all," he has to "wash the cups and plates." Grandma can't be bothered, she busy as a bee, Compiling ge-ne-al-ogy---for the Family Tree. She has no time to babysit, the curtains are a fright, No buttons left on Grandpa's shirt, the flower bed's a sight. She's given up her club work and the soaps on the TV, The only thing she does now-a-days is climb the Family Tree. She goes down to the courthouse and studies ancient lore, We know more about our forebears than we ever knew before. The books are old and dusty, they make poor Grandma sneeze, A minor irritation when you're climbing Family Trees. The mail is all for Grandma, it comes from near and far, Last week she got the proof she needs to join the D.A.R.! A monumental project everyone agrees, All from climbing up those wreched Family Trees. Now some folks came from Scotland, some from Galway Bay, Some were French as pastry, some German all the way. Some went West to stake their claims, some stayed by the sea. Grandma hopes to find them all, as she climbs the Family Tree. She wanders through the graveyard in search of date and name, The rich, the poor, the in-between, all sleeping there the same. She pauses now and then to rest, fanned by a gentle breeze, That blows above the Fathers, of all our Family Trees. There are pioneers and patriots, mixed in our kith and kin, Who blazed the paths of wilderness and fought through thick and thin. But none more staunch than Grandma, who eyes light up with glee, Each time she finds a missing branch for the Family Tree. Their skills were wide and varied, from carpenter to cook, And one, alas, the records show, was hopelessly.....a crook. Blacksmith, weaver, farmer, judge - some tutored for a fee. Once lost in time, now all recorded on the Family Tree. To some it's just a hobby, to Grandma it's much more, She learns the joys and heartaches of those that went before. They loved, they lost, they laughed, they wept - and now, for you and me, They live again in spirit, around the Family Tree.
