Happy Friday! We have just been given a hand drawn and painted family
tree, matted and framed. A member of this family built our historic
house, the Hezekiah Alexander House, in 1774, so this is not just a
random piece of art, it has local historical and genealogical
significance. Although a number of the names are misspelled. My question
is, what do you call this when Nomenclature does not admit the existence
of family tree, genealogical chart, or anything else I have been able to
shoehorn this thing into?

All reasonable responses cheerfully and gratefully considered - 

Anne

 

PS - It's been long enough that y'all probably don't remember this. I
hope. Or maybe I got it somewhere else:

Nomenclature - 

A clature consisting entirely of women.
