Created by PAFBOOK. How to read this Record Generated Using the Modified Register Numbering System This record was generated using the Modern Register Numbering System. The progenitor or other individual is given the number 1. Each child is then numbered in order with lower-case Roman numerals (i, ii, iii, iv, v, etc.). Each individual is also given a number regardless of whether the line is subsequently carried on. A plus mark prior to the number is used to indicate if the line is later carried on. This is the system used by the National Genealogical Society Quarterly. To Illustrate: FIRST GENERATION 1 The progenitor 2 i 1st Child of number 1 3 ii 2nd Child of number 1 + 4 iii 3rd Child of number 1 SECOND GENERATION 4 3rd Child of number 1 + 5 i 1st Child of number 4 THIRD GENERATION 5 1st Child of number 4 6 i 1st Child of number 5 The index of the report list the Number assigned to the individual. PAFBOOK identifies the number of spouse's, as well as their parents, using the System Number of the progenitors descendant. These are identified by using their husband's or wive's System Number and adding a =H (Husband) or =W (Wife) and their appropriate marriage. In this way multiple marriage are recorded. i.e: The spouse of 6 would be 6=H1 if female or =W1 if male. Using the same example, were there more than one marriage they would be recorded as, 6=H1 and 6=H2 etc. Parents or spouses are identified using the spouse's number and a F (Father) or M (Mother). i.e: 6=H1F.
