Integrate Materials into a Digital Genealogy
It is recommended to first establish relationships for the individual, parents, grandparents, and known overseas relatives, then attach Qiaopi letters, gravestones, clan association rosters, newspaper screenshots, and oral histories to the corresponding individuals one by one. Ancestral origins and lineage relationships that cannot be confirmed should retain their sources and evidence status.
