8. FAMILY TREES

Each family tree shows the reported children, parents, grandparents and great-grandparents of a family group. In order to reduceredundancy, any family group which is wholly included within another family tree may not be reported separately.

Above each of the great-grandparent boxes (top row), a continuation family tree reference number is shown if thegreat-grandparent is recorded as a child in the continuation tree. A continuation reference number is also shown to the left of agrandparent or parent box if that individual has siblings reported in the continuation tree; and beneath a child box (bottom row) ifthat individual has children reported in the continuation tree.

In cases of multiple marriages, a continuation reference number preceded by "=" is shown to the right of a parent box. Thisnumber references the previous and/or next tree in which that individual is shown with another partner.

In cases of adopted (or fostered) children, the parental connection is shown with a dashed line and a continuation reference numberpreceded by "=" is shown within the individual's box. This number references the tree in which that individual is shown with hisor her natural parents.
