  1. ALL the genealogies and all names mentioned in all the stories will appear in this fashion. The people that do not have detailed stories will have 'tid bit' notes shared here that "shed light" on the detailed personages mentioned elsewhere. Some one me be bitter about their childhood relationship; disclosed here is more of the insightful source of 'why' that may be; for example.
