Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
Based on what I've learned about my grandmother in the last 48 hours, I wonder if that's a song she sang to repent.
I have discovered that my dear sweet grandma wasn't as dear and as sweet as she portrayed herself in her latter years. As a matter of fact, she had quite a reputation in a small Alabama town back in the 1920s. After her husband died, she allegedly found comfort in the arms of other men and ended up having two babies by two different fathers---in addition to the four children she already had.
She took her secrets to her grave---leaving only the gossip about her life to be passed down from generation to generation.
If you want to research your family history, a site I recommend is FamilySearch.org
