Huh...

Wow. My chapter has a book containing a flow chart of each family tree since the founding of our chapter. I always thought all chapters had them. When I was an associate member, I was encouraged to memorize my family tree, which I did. A few years ago, I looked up my tree and discovered that I now have about six generations of little brothers, consisting of about sixteen brothers or some crazy number like that. Pretty neat, since I was only the seventh brother in my tree.

Every year, the alumi appoint an alumnus to add the names of the newly initiated brothers and their zeta numbers to the appropriate tree. So once it's established, it's really no big deal to keep it updated. On the other hand, starting from scratch and going back through decades of chapter history could be daunting. Good luck.

In ZAX,
Ottor
