Households

A couple and the children under one roof — the unit a census or a parish register actually records, which is not the same shape as a pedigree.

A pedigree keeps one child per generation and throws the rest away. A household keeps all of them, because that is what the document in front of the clerk recorded. 199 households are published here, holding 342 children between them.

Read the sizes and you can watch the century change. The largest households here are Georgian and early colonial; the smallest are modern. Nobody in this family decided that. The women who bore them →

A household here is a reconstruction, not a document. It says these people are recorded as the children of this couple. It does not claim they all lived under one roof, or that the list is complete — infant deaths in particular go unrecorded in a tree built from indexes.

And 8 the tree does not carry

People a census or a register places in a household, where no household above names them. The table above is built from the family tree; these come from registers, indexes and depositions. Until the tree holds them they belong here rather than nowhere, and the list is computed each build, so documenting one more puts it here by itself.
