Introduction - please read this first!

It is impossible to devise a simple easy-to-follow system for presenting the details of a large family tree.

As part of my own records I keep a “working sheet” for family groups. Each working sheet shows the parents (birth, baptism, marriage, death and burial) but gives fuller details of their children lives.

The information I am entering here is divided into those family groups, hence each entry title starts “WS”. The numbering system is illogical because it has expanded since 1984 as my information has expanded and it will make no sense to anyone but me. However, if the text says “See WS 23” then that is where more information will be found. This may not be immediately. I may have not entered WS 23 here yet. Not all individuals have a working sheet. Information may well be repeated at various points in order to aid clarity. Not all the information I have is entered as not all is collated as yet - this is a work in progress.

All mistakes of fact, transcription, interpretation and supposition are my own. I aim for total accuracy but am human. Corrections with source references very welcome as only then will the truth be found.
