Branches · 4
Many paths. Shared histories.
4 branches recorded under Mormonism, one step down, as the records give them.
What this means
Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.
Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch
