I went searching for
an ancestor. I cannot find him still.
He moved around from place to place and
did not live a will.
He married where a courthouse burned. He
mended all his fences.
He avoided any man who came to take the
U.S. Census.
He always kept his luggage packed, this
man who had no fame.
And every 20 years or so, this rascal
changed his name.
His parents came from Europe and should
be upon some list
of passengers to the U.S.A., but somehow
they got missed.
And no one else in this world is
searching for this man.
So, I play genea-solitaire to find him
if I can.
I'm told he's buried in a plot, with
tombstone he was blessed;
but the weather took the engraving, and
some vandals took the rest.
He died before the county clerks decided
to keep records.
No Family Bible has emerged, in spite of
all my efforts.
To top it off this ancestor, who caused
me many groans,
Just to give me one more pain, betrothed
a girl named JONES!
