Ancestry
A documentary index of lineages, people, places, and historical context.
Genealogy is mostly an exercise in refusing to believe family stories until the paperwork shows up. This section collects historical genealogy as a series of case studies in documented descent.
Ambiguity stays visible. A tidy story is not a substitute for a defensible one.
