The chart represents your direct bloodline.
Men are always even numbers and women are always odd numbers.
Be sure to give the most complete information you can. It is very important to include the county, many of the records are at the county governmental level, if you know the county it can be very helpful in doing research. If your research goes beyond the fifth generation on this chart, you simply start a new chart, for each person in the fifth generation. Always record the woman's maiden name on the line provided for the woman's name. Always record your source of information include titles, authors, page numbers, etc.
