           How to read this Record Generated Using the
               Henry Genealogical Numbering System

     This record was generated using the Modern Modified Henry
Numbering System.  The original Henry Numbering System was
developed by Reginald Buchanan Henry who used it in his
"Genealogies of the Families of the Presidents" which he produced
in 1935.

     This sceme of indexing consists of numbering the children in
each generation in the order of their birth.  The numbering
begins with a progenitor of a line who is assigned number 1.  The
second generation are his children in order of birth who are
assigned a second digit in order of birth.  His or her oldest
child becomes 11, his next child becomes 12, ect. If there are
more than nine children, capital letters are used in alphabetic
order.  The tenth is given letter A, the eleventh becomes B, ect. 
The 3rd and succeeding generations follow using the same
numbering sequence and methodology.

     To Illustrate:
     Generation                                  Henry Number
     (1)  The Progenitor or common ancestor.          1
     (2)  Child number 3                              13
     (3)  Child number 8                              138
     (4)  Child number 10                             138-A
     (5)  Child number 1                              138-A1
     (6)  Child number 11                             138-A1B
     (7)  Child number 3                              138-A1B-3

     The index to the report is unique in that is uses the Henry
Report Number of each individual to identify it's location within
the report.  As all Henry Numbers are sequential and progressive,
it is simple to find each individual.  KEEP IN MIND THAT ONLY
DIRECT DECSCENDANTS OF A PROGRNITOR ARE ASSIGNED TRUE HENRY
NUMBERS.
     PAFBOOK identifies the number of spouse's, as well as their
parents, using the Henry Number of the progenitors descendant. 
These are identified by using their husband's or wive's Henry
Number and adding a =H (Husband) or =W (Wife) and their
appropriate marriage.  In this way multiple marriage are
recorded.  i.e:  The spouse of 138-1 would be 138-1=H1 if female
or =W1 if male.  Using the same example, were there more than one
marriage they would be recorded as, 138-1=H1 and 138-1=H2 etc. 
Parents or spouses are identified using the spouse's number and a
F (Father) or M (Mother).  i.e: 138-1=H1F.  

Thus:

138-1 [Fourth Generation] is the 1st child of the 8th child of    
      the 3rd child of the progenitor.

138-1=H1 would be the first husband.

138-1=H1F would be the first husband's father.
It will start a new number one for each child from a different marriage.
As well as the new number one it will contain symbols for different marriages.

     The things that I have added to the the system help with the ease of 
     figuring the number of generations for long numbers.  It is easier to
     read "132-345-234" then it is to read "132345234".  For this reason 
     after every third generation I have added a "-" to seperate the number
     and make it easier to read.  Thus the fourth generation number would
     look as follows:  "123-4".  The second thing that I have added is for
     multiple marriages.  This way by just looking a number you can tell
     what marriages a person is from.  Also for each marriage of an individual
     I restared at "1" for the first child of that marriage.  Thus for the
     first marriage of individual "12" his first child would be "121".  His
     first child of his second marriage would be "1(2)1".  The "1(2)1" would
     read as the first child of the second marriage of the second child of 
     the ancestor.  I have used symbols for up to 20 marriages.  More 
     marriages are allowed up to 50 but I have only the twenty symbols.  This
     is to be as compatiable with as many printers as possible.  The Symbols 
     are as follows:

		   Marriage Number	      Symbol
			2nd    			( )
			3rd			[ ]
			4th			{ }
			5th			< >
			6th			: :
			7th			| |
			8th			` '
			9th			\ /
			10th			" "
			11th			! !
			12th			# #
			13th			% %
			14th			& &
			15th			* *
			16th			^ ^
			17th			~ ~
			18th			$ $
			19th			? ?
			20th			@ @

     Also after the 9th child I have started to use letters so as to use only
     1 digit for each generation.  Thus the tenth child of the ancestor would
     be "1A" and the eleventh child would be "1B" and so on.  The 36th child
     for a marriage would thus start small letters if they should ever be
     needed. Thus the 36th child of the ancestor would be "1a".
