Sample birth brief
Birth Briefs will be supplied using the PAF (Personal Ancestral File) Pedigree report. This produces (see sample below) 5 generations on one A4 sheet.For each person the following information is provided:
- Name
- B:
- Date of Birth/Baptism
- P:
- Place of Birth/Baptism
- M:
- Date of Marriage
- P:
- Place of Marriage
- D:
- Date of Death/Burial
- P:
- Place of Death/Burial
If all the information cannot be displayed in the designated space the 'name' will be abbreviated; individual parts of other information may be abbreviated or the whole item truncated.
For people who were born/baptised less than 110 years ago (or for whom there is no birth date) and no death/burial date is provided only the name is given.
The 'last' generation is split. This means that the 'husband' appears in column 5 and the 'wife' in column 6.
