Jaskoll · Topel — Family Tree

Origins & colour legend

Colours follow the key on your sheets, extended for the Robinson/Eisen side.

A dashed tile marks a half-sibling — someone joined to this family through one parent rather than two. A dashed text rail marks a former relationship, such as a marriage that ended. Everything drawn with a solid edge is a full blood relation as far as the archive can establish it.

The mark

The Robinson arms as the family draws them — a stag's head on a bend, a robin above, and the motto tout ensemble: all together.

Worth saying plainly: English armorial rolls for the surname Robinson have no connection to this family. The name was taken on in New York after 1903 — Jancu Robinson was born Jacob, in Poland, and arrived from Bucharest. The crest is a family keepsake, not a line of descent.

Research to-do

Transcribed from two handwritten sheets photographed at an angle. Anything marked ? or low confidence is my reading, not a fact — correct it in the side panel and re-export.

Taking the data with you

This chart is one HTML file and nothing else — no database, no account, no server. If it should ever stop being maintained, the files below are what survive it.

GEDCOM is the interchange format every genealogy program reads — Ancestry, MyHeritage, Gramps, RootsMagic, Family Tree Maker. Importing this file into any of them rebuilds the people, the families and the links between them.

The evidence travels with it. Each citation becomes a SOUR record carrying its archive locator, the confidence held against each person is written as a QUAY value, and the notes come across in full — so nothing arrives as bare assertion.

The JSON file is the same data in the shape this page holds it, for anyone who would rather write their own code against it than open a genealogy program.

A GEDCOM carries the living as readily as the dead. Fourteen people on this chart are probably alive, and everything about them came from the family rather than from a record — think before uploading this anywhere public.

What has changed

Not a list of edits — a list of what this archive came to know, and when. Each entry compares the chart against the version before it: who was added, whose dates moved, who gained a face. Corrections appear as plainly as findings, because several of these are the archive being wrong about something and saying so. The line in italics is why it changed; open the person for the reasoning.
