UMU GWUANYI OYI — the record, as a file
Taken 2026-07-28

WHAT THIS IS
  The lineage of Umu Gwuanyi Oyi of Amama, in Owere Ede-Oballa, Nsukka.
  Everyone in it descends from Areji Amoke, who founded Amama.

WHAT YOU HAVE
  people.csv   one row per person: their name, the name of their father,
               which generation they stand in, and what the record says
               about them. Opens in Excel, LibreOffice or Google Sheets.
  record.json  the same information with the family structure kept intact —
               households, which mother's house each child belongs to, and
               the parentage links. This is the one to keep if the platform
               is ever rebuilt.

READING THE NAMES
  A name in this record IS the line, written out. "Ugwu Onah Nwa Ezugwu Nwa
  Aroke" reads as Ugwu, son of Onah, son of Ezugwu, son of Aroke. The dotted
  letters are Igbo and are part of the spelling, not decoration: Ụ ụ Ọ ọ Ị ị
  Ṅ ṅ. If they appear as strange symbols, the file was opened as the wrong
  kind of text — in Excel use Data > From Text/CSV and choose UTF-8.

  Children are grouped by their mother's house. Children of one mother are
  NWANNE. Children of the same father by different mothers are NWANNA. The
  record keeps that difference because the family does.

WHAT IS NOT HERE
  Only what you are entitled to see was written into this file, exactly as on
  the website. If you were not signed in, that is the founders and those long
  gone, and no living person. The recorded voices of the elders are not
  included in any copy: they were given at a particular tier, to particular
  people, and a file cannot remember who it was meant for.

IF THIS IS ALL THAT SURVIVES
  It is enough to rebuild from. people.csv can be read by anyone;
  record.json holds the structure. The platform this came from was built for
  the kindred and given to it.

  Built by Onah Chukwuemeka Henry, a son of Umu Gwuanyi Oyi.
