| If there are children by the first spouse but none by later spouses -- the usual situation -- the normal time order rules would put these later spouses far down the listing, after the last descendant of the first spouse. In order to avoid orphaning these spousal names unduly and making the table less readable, we adopt the following conventions: 1. If no children are produced with a spouse, the spouse's name may be surrounded by bold parentheses and placed immediately under the previous spouse. This notation is only needed when there are children by the first spouse; the parentheses cut off the later spouse from any connection to the children further down the list. | |
| 2. If there are children by both spouses, then normal time order rules must apply -- this occurs three times in the table, with William Rogan Jr. in Generations 1-3, with Thomas Rogan in Zone A1, and Crystal Shewchuk in Zone C2. An example of each situation is given below. | |
