Offices on record

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Life

Roles and affiliation

Holding an office is not parentage and not discipleship.

What this means

As the records give them: every row is a third party’s statement, not a self-description, and a role or an affiliation is often held for one period of a life only. An affiliation is not a belief, and this site does not ask anyone about theirs. For an office: which one, for how long, and where the records give an ordinal or the holders either side. Recognition of a tenure is never universal: contested lines appear as overlapping tenures rather than as one corrected sequence.

The family of George V

Parents, spouses and children as the records give them.

Documented family only. A teacher, a successor or a patron is never drawn in this tree.

Family 16

What this means

A documented human family relationship. Not a succession mechanism, and not religious transmission.

Does not imply a right to an office · transmission of a teaching · a religious affiliation held by the whole house · continuous rule · a shared religious affiliation

Transmission

Teachers and students

Teaching passed from one person to another, in the direction of the arrows — not ancestry, and not succession.

What this means

In the direction the records give it. This is not biological ancestry and it is not institutional succession: a student who inherited no office still received the teaching, and an heir who received the office may have been taught by someone else entirely. It does not imply that teacher and student agreed.

Religious context

What the records tie them to

Founded, supported, associated with — as third parties recorded it.

What this means

A founding is an attribution, usually contested, and not a claim that the tradition began fully formed. Patronage is an act, not a belief: it says nothing about the religion of a population, and nothing about the patron’s own practice in every period of a life. Domains are as sources record them — for a saint, usually a patronage — rarely exclusive, and not the same in every account.
