Family tree
A family tree, also called a genealogy or a pedigree chart, is a chart representing family relationships in a conventional tree structure. More detailed family trees, used in medicine and social work, are known as genograms.
Examples of use of genealogical tree
1. A brightly colored chart features a genealogical tree proving Nazarbayev‘s kinship to a 17th–century national hero.
2. "It has become fashionable to know who your ancestors were," said Sergei Kotelnikov, who runs the All–Russian Genealogical Tree web site (www.vgd.ru). "It raises your social status, and it doesn‘t matter if your ancestors were peasants or nobles; it‘s the number of known generations." It is nearly impossible to trace family roots in Ukraine, Belarus, and parts of western Russia, such as the Smolensk region, because so many archives were destroyed in the Revolution, the Civil War and the two world wars.
