FAMILY TIDE PRESERVATION ARCHIVE
Generated: 2026-09-16T17:43:30.030234Z

Created in honour of John Joseph van Waterschoot (1959–2020), whose earlier genealogy work helped preserve and recover this family's history.

CONTENTS
- family-tide-latest.ged: privacy-safe GEDCOM 7 export for genealogy software.
- site-data.json: canonical Family Tide structured research snapshot.
- publication-audit.json: publication/evidence audit when available.
- tree-coverage-report.json: canonical coverage report when available.

PRIVACY
Living people remain represented as structural nodes in the public GEDCOM but their names, dates, notes and sources are redacted. The canonical site-data snapshot in this research ZIP may contain additional site-published information and is intended as a preservation/research artifact; do not redistribute it as a public living-person directory.

EVIDENCE
Family Tide deliberately preserves uncertainty. GEDCOM notes carry evidence-status and source-feed provenance where available. PROVISIONAL, CONFLICTED, LEAD and HISTORICAL TRADITION material must not be interpreted as proven lineage.

MEDIEVAL RESEARCH
Any Charlemagne/Idesbald/Van der Gracht material remains a separate meeting-in-the-middle research lane unless and until a continuous documented bridge is established.
