I am planting this tree for all to see The branches spreading far & wide 
From this geneologist it's hard to hide For within my heart is family pride.
Branches reaching tree to tree amongst this family forest you can see me.

his decendants to Reuben Willey Bramblett, his son James Edward "J.E." is the 
trunk & his two sons Marvin Roscoe "M.R." & Joseph "Joe" Lafate Bramblett are

                        Genealogy

Your tombstone stands among the rest, Neglected and alone, 
The name and date are chiseled out, On polished marble stone. 
It reaches out to all who care, It is too late to mourn, 
You did not know that I exist, You died and I was born. 
Yet each of us are cells of you, In flesh and blood and bone, 
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse, Entirely not our own. 
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled, One hundred years ago, 
Spreads out among the ones you left, Who would have loved you so. 
I wonder as you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew, 
That someday I would find the spot, And come to visit you.
