Footsteps
through census records,
every ten years;
nine after they left England.
I trace their migration
from Wales,
through England,
and across the USA.
I search newspapers,
looking for glimpses
of their lives.
and what they did.
I learn about
coal mining,
and coal mines,
and how they made their money.
I follow and trace
looking for every
piece of information
that documented they were here!
