FAMILIES DATABASE

SECTION I - ANCIENT & MYTHICAL

The caveats provided about our reliance on the integrity of our sources are particularly applicable to the data pages in this section. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly given the mythical nature of much of the data, the sources used for this section frequently contradict each other and some of the data is far from being convincing with regard to dates, etc.. We suggest that the pages in this section (and any other sources you find that report on these early families) should be viewed FOR FUN rather than with any serious intent. As our main focus is on Section III of the database, we are giving only a low priority to sorting out the many discrepancies we have found in these Ancient & Mythical pages. Nevertheless, from time to time we will review some of them and try to make sense of them.

(1) This page was redone on 04.05.25 as part of an exercise to make the layout of the Ancient & Mythical section of the database more consistent with that of the other 2 sections of the database. This was done in anticipation of our increasing the level of our work, at least in the short-medium term, on two of our Long-term projects: 'Old Welsh families' and 'Old Irish families'. Prior to then, this page was somewhat simpler as it had left the uploaded/updated dates shown on the individual pages rather than above.
(2) "Early" above means uploaded before 20th September 2002. From then on we started recording the date a page was first uploaded, as shown here.
