Fourteen families, not one surname
The Families
A name is not a family, and a family history that follows only one name is half a history. These are the names the register holds in numbers, with the people under each, the years and places they are found in, and how well the archive knows them.
Each page is built from the register and says only what the register holds: who carries the name (as a first or
second surname), where they are filed, between which years, which of them the archive has joined to the line, and which
other families they are joined to. A shared surname is not a relationship — a page says so
wherever the people under it are gathered by the name alone.
The counts are people with a page of their own here. Anyone living, and anyone
held out of publication, is left out of every count and every list.
