About the table

Families

A family is added to the table when a record has been created in WeRelate for a family based directly on information available in monument transcriptions. Inferred families will not typically be created. For instance, if a monuement reads 'jane doe wife to john doe', that is a direct reference to a family and would support creation of a family record. Likewise, 'child doe daughter of john and jane doe' is also a direct reference to a family. However, 'jane doe, mother - wife - fisherwoman' is not a sufficient reference to support creation of a family record, even if the monument sits beside one reading 'john doe, father - husband - ironworker'; creation of a family record would be based on inferring a direct relationship between the two persons rather than from a direct statement.

Children

Persons 16 years of age or younger at time of death are included in the 'children' columns.

Section(date)

Sections are demarked on the schematic figure at right. Abbreviations in the table refer to:

• GoTa = Garden of Time, August 2004 collection.
• GoTSEa = secluded south-east corner of the Garden of Time section, July 2004 collection

Content from the GoTa and GoTSEa sets should be designated 'secondary' as the information is not a direct transcript, but only key meta-data which has been transformed a couple of times; the origin of this information was ultimately direct transcription from monuments, though.

?Gender or Age?

This reflects that either a person's gender or the specific birth and death years are unclear from available information. This might be due to a given name which may attributed to people of either gender without additional information to resolve the ambiguity. This might also be due to date information not being legible.
