**[[Family]]** pages represent a collection of two or more closely connected [[Person|Persons]]. They are typically, but not strictly, related to each other. ^about
The 'defining members' of a Family are the `parents`, e.g. the literal parents of a traditional family. There may then be zero or more `children` and/or `other` relations of the Family. Each Family represents one 'vertex' between parents and children, i.e. a parents of one Family will be a children of another.
This is a [[Class]] within the [[System]].
