It bristles with clues hinting about names, dates, places, events, sources, and relationships that may need to be discovered, verified, or better documented. A family group record is created by a genealogist to show at least the names of the husband, wife, and children of a family. Most family group records also show known birth, marriage, and death information, additional spouses (if any) of the parents, and children’s spouses.
