Children hang down from the joining line of the parents, oldest to youngest from left to right. If there are too many children a single line can be drawn from the parents and then to other one with all the children. This is to save space if needed. Foster or adopted children hang down from a dotted line. Twins hang from the same spot in a triangle, and identical twins are then connected as well.
Names are usually directly below each square or circle.
