- Description:
- This blank "planetary photographic record" was published around 1869 and functioned as a family tree. The keeping of records and the tracing of ancestral lineage was primarily done in earlier centuries to establish a family's nobility. Today these records form an integral part of the historical record.
This image shows a blank genealogical chart published around 1869. A stylized banner across the top reads "Planetary Photographic Family Record." Two angels are drawn at the top and appear to hold the chart by strings. This chart functioned as a family tree. Two spaces in the middle are designed to hold the photographs and information for the parents, and twelve spaces around the edges are for the children. - Metadata URL:
