The Narrow Line

We walk a lonely road
Or so I have been told
That life's a lonely journey for us all
But here I'd like to say, somewhere along the way
We choose how we stand and how we fall

For to walk upon this earth, there's a price I have to pay
For all you do and say, and all you hope and pray
And all that you oppose and obey

And all that you believe, and all you laugh and grieve
and what you have become today

And to think the way I do, there's a price I have to pay

Walk the narrow line, walk the narrow line
Walk the narrow line back home
I'll walk until I find, my truth and piece of mind
I will walk the narrow line

Peace will come, your peace will come
When all is said and done
It's only a memory away

And when you find peace, and all your angers cease
Then you'll make some sense of it all
Then the promises of truth, that shone so bright in youth
Give way to greater knowledge as they fall

To be truthful to myself, there's a price I have to pay

Web Site summer Version

After completing the rewrite of Thomas Ferris's biography yesterday I will need to add the citations and sources to the work as well as adding in some local and national historical time lines. I am happy with the new finished work though as I find it an easier read when I keep it written in decades. Maybe later this afternoon I can complete and begin work on rewriting Robert James Ferris I.

This morning is being spent coding the Summer Version of the Ferris Family History and Genealogy Project. I have four pages done and hope to have four more done today. That should leave only three more to be completed tomorrow. Adding in images and links over the weekend should allow me to put this version into testing next week and ( cross your fingers) result in a new version on line before June.

Thanks to Edith Brady who inquired if her great Grandmother Elizabeth Ferris might be a relation. Though it appears we are not related I hope the Census Records I sent you will point you in the right direction of locating your family branch. I am pretty certain we had a good hit on the Wisconsin 1860 Census ! Let me know if I can be of assistance again !

As the Summer Version draws closer and closer I hope family members look at their branch and see if any additions, corrections, or deletions are needed. It is imperative I have them before June in order to get this version out on time. Pictures, Documents, and Stories can all be added easily but hard data means a complete redo of many pages.

Happy Birthday to Jean Selines of the MacDonald branch of my family !!!! I look forward to getting together with cousin Pete MacDonald and you in the future !

Thanks to all for looking in and happy hunting !
