FAMILY  GROUP  SHEET

NOTE:  This family group sheet contains information on 3 generations.  To make it easier to read, one of the original Genealogy report format is used.  For this family group sheet, here is an explaination on how to understand it:

The first generation is numerical order.  The second generation (in sequence) is referred alphabetically.  Then the pattern is continued (number letter number letter).  To show you,  an example:
Charles is number 1.  Each of his children will be identified in order with  a letter.  The 3rd generation is indentified in order with a number,  as example, 1a10 would be Albert Vandaveer, son of James and 2nd wife, Nancy.
1=Charles (first generation)
   a=James (second generation  first  child)
      10=Albert  the 10th child of James
