Thomas White is the first generation. His
descendants who bear the family name stand
in numerical order from himself to NO. 79.
Small figures at the end of a name, thus,
"THOMAS2" indicate the generation to which
the individual belongs.
Figures in parentheses placed before a
name, forming the subject of a distinct
notice, thus, (2) THOMAS," denote time
numerical order in which he stands, and will
be found by turning back to that number.
Names in the family group, printed in
large capitals, thus, "2. THOMAS2" i.e.,
number 2, Thomas, second generation, will be
understood as subjects of future treatment,
and may be found forward, under that
generation, with the same number enclosed in
parentheses before the name.
