Let Me Introduce You
What ARE those numbers?
Record
Identification Numbers!
I
know they are annoying when you are reading (and writing) about our relatives,
but they are essential because of the large number of repeated names.
Hugh(1) &
Margaret(2) have:
10 John Roberts
9 Mary Roberts
with different middle names
7 Edward
Roberts
7 James Roberts
6 Margaret
Roberts (plus Margaret(2) herself)
5 Thomas
Roberts
5 William
Roberts
5 Isaac Roberts
4 Hugh Roberts
(plus Hugh(1) himself)
4 Sarah Roberts
Some
of these names are family names, others are names that were popular at the time,
and some are both of these.
So
Hugh(1) and Margaret(2) are numbers 1 and 2.
All of these numbers are computer generated from my genealogy software
program.
