Niven Family History Report

Niven Family History Report
Mike Copeman

Introduction

This page contains a family history report for the Niven family. Family history reports for other branches of the extended family are included elsewhere. A family history report contains information about the descendants of an initial family unit, grouped by families.

Each descendant in a family history report is assigned a number representing that person's relationship to the initial family unit. Thus 1.3.2.5 means the fifth child of the second child of the third child in the initial family. There are six pages in this report, with "Next" and/or "Previous" links at the bottom of each page to move through the report.
