Did our ancestors have roaming in their blood?
|
Traveling from North Carolina to Pierce County, |
| And places in between... |
| I hope on them there was no bounty! |
| |
| Our kin are scattered far and near |
| We now have descendants by the dozen |
| Did our ancestors guess the multitude of kin? |
| All the land is filled with cousins! |
| |
| Have you ever noticed the favor? |
| Ever looked in the mirror to see... |
| Maybe a side profile... |
| See the resemblance from the family tree! |
| |
| Look at Grandpa William Monroe... |
| Did he have the need to roam? |
| From North in Gilmer County he came |
| Down South to Pierce County but not alone... |
| |
There were Dessie, Arty, Ina Jane, Carrie, Mary and Ruby |
| Yes with him family members on the go |
| Searching for a new home |
| There were sons Martin, John, Fletch, Leslie, Dewey, Ishom and Joe |
| |
| They wrestled the land from thorn and vine |
| There was land aplenty for all the sons |
| Land for daughters and family too |
| They settled to raise their little ones |
| |
| In the shade of the Georgia Pine |
| They sired children by the score |
| Days of work, laughter and play |
| Life for them was no bore. |
| |
| Today to this reunion we welcome them all |
| The sons of Isham's line... |
| And of course the daughters too |
| We hope you are feeling fine. |
| |
| We are part of the family tree |
| From city, farm or ranch |
| We're glad you came this way |
| We welcome every branch! |
