with my grandmother, Georgiana Parrish, and continues with my 
father, Paul LaDuke, and me. While we go back tens of generations, the general 
focus is on: 

Van Pattens

LaDukes 

Andrews

 Grandys

Genealogy

begins as an interest

becomes a hobby

continues as an avocation

takes over as an obsession

and in its last stage

is an incurable disease!


If

If you could see your ancestors, all standing in a row, 

Would you be proud of them, or don't you really know? 

Strange discoveries are made, in climbing family trees, 

And some of them, you know, might not particularly please 

There might be some of them, you wouldn't care to know. 

But here is another question, that requires a different view.
 
If you could meet your ancestors, what would they think of YOU?
