Fourth century to the present time,
rejecting any about whose parentage
nothing was known. He found the
tast majority came from very large
families, much larger than the aver
age family at the time they lived"
The geniuses tended to be the oldest
sons of large families or the youngest
sons Of large families. Only children
made up a very small percentage Of
