The family tree

I didn't want to get caught up in naming family members but it's so hard to keep them straight for the uninformed because there are so many. So, I decided to draft a rough family tree but using numbers such as #1 sister for the first born and first sister, #2 brother for the second born and first brother, #3 brother for the third born and second brother, etc. You with me?
  • #1 sister
    • #1 niece
      • a daughter
    • #3 niece
      • a son
      • a daughter
      • a daughter
      • a son
    • #5 niece
  • #2 brother
    • #1 nephew
      • a daughter
      • a son
    • #2 nephew
    • #4 nephew
  • #3 brother
    • #2 niece
  • #4 sister
    • #4 niece
      • a son
    • #3 nephew
    • #6 niece
  • #5 brother
  • #6 brother
    • #5 nephew
  • #7 brother - ME
    • a daughter
    • a daughter


I wonder if this will really help end confusion when I refer to my family members.

We'll see.
