>This report lists the active person and his or her
ancestors along with their vital data. The people are numbered in a
special way which is an established standard called Ahnentafel.
The active person is given number 1. His or her father and mother
have numbers 2 and 3, respectively. This rule holds for every person
while going back in generations: father's parents are numbered 4 and 5,
and mother's parents are numbered 6 and 7, fathers always numbered
with even and mothers with odd numbers. Therefore, for any person
having number N in this tree, the numbers of father and mother
are 2N and 2N+1, respectively.
