The last column looks interesting but I'm not sure they thought it through very well. What if there were twins or triplets, or a stepchild the same age as the person's own child? Would they manage to put two or three X's in the same box?

And what's the betting that we find a lot of married women and unmarried mothers filled that column in although it says married men, widowers and widows only?! Though of course it will be useful if they did.

I should find three grandparents (and the other if she came to school in England earlier than we were told), three great-grandparents, and three great-great-grandparents. But I'm most interested in seeing where my great-uncle's wife was born! I will also be interested to see how many living children my great-uncle claims to have.
