To read this genealogical register of descendants, look at this example: + 10 M ix. Berrey Guffey was born 27 February 1860 and died 9 November 1935. The plus sign (+) means he has descendants, so you will find him and his own family of children later too, with even more info about him listed there, just look for the 10 again later in the list. Then you see his own "ID number (10)" then whether or not he is "male (M) or female (F)" and then the Roman numeral means "which number child he is, within his siblings." He is the 9th child born in that family. i=1 ii=2 iii=3 iv=4 v=5 vi=6 vii=7 viii=8 ix=9 x=10 xi=11 and so on. If there are no + signs, it means that either that person had no children, or I don't have any information about any children (and I would like to know some!) |
