Genealogies
MONARCHS: genealogical tables
This page contains a sampling of historical genealogies I have developed for instruction or other purposes. Most of them are simplified succession charts, others are more detailed, and some are annotated.
See note on transliteration.
NOTE: Some browsers or hosting sites do not display all pdf features correctly; if your browser does not display features, characters, or annotations correctly on the screen, it is best to download the pdf file and view it on your own device.
