Oldest first, where a date is recorded.
What this means
People whose own records place them in this house. Membership of a house is a family fact. It is not a religious affiliation and not a right to any office. “Child of” appears where a member’s recorded parent is also in the house — a documented human family, the same kind of claim as membership, and nothing more.

Religious context · a separate claim
Affiliation
Counted from the members’ own statements — never the religion of anyone the house ruled.
What this means
Assembled from the members’ own statements, and counted. What a person was affiliated with, what a ruler paid for, what a state did and what a population practised are four separate kinds of claim. Only the first two are in the data at all, and they are kept apart here.
