Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | While no brief article can cover this subject thoroughly - entire books have been written about it - an overview of the use of aliases may help researchers discover connections within their families. Particular problems often arise in identifying some individuals because many families changed their surnames, used patronymics, and had more than one living child with the same given name. "Cadet" branches of families also existed, with the same surname(s), further confusing records. |
