Codes

In addition to the standardized codes listed above, you are free to enter any other property label you want.

Warning: only use single-word codes - Puck does not allow for empty spaces in property codes!

Note: property codes are fixed and language-independent. They do not change by switching from one language to another.

Endogenous properties:

• ALL - a pseudo-property that serves to remove a partition and to restore the unity of the underlying corpus

• SEX - gender

• GEN - generation (click here for the generation concept used by Puck)

• FIRSTN - first name

• LASTN - last name

• ORD - birth order within the (cognatic) sibling group (according to the attribute BIRT Date)

• FRATP - father, agnatic fratry

• FRATM - mother, uterine fratry

• PATRIC - agnatic apical ancestor, "patrilineage"

• MATRIC - uterine apical ancestress, "matrilineage"

• PATRID - distance to the agnatic apical ancestor, "agnatic generation"

• MATRID - distance to the agnatic apical ancestress, "uterine generation"

• DEPTH - distance to the most remote ancestor, maximal generational depth

• MDEPTH - mean distance to ancestors, mean generational depth (formula of Cazes and Cazes)

• PEDG x - number of ascendants (where x is a number specifying generational distance)

• PROG x - number of descendants (where x is a number specifying generational distance)

• SPOU - number of spouses

• SIB - number of siblings

Exogenous properties (Gedcom codes):

• # + Marriage Ring Code (in standard notation) - a binary property indicating whether the individual is or is not implied in a matrimonial ring of the specified type. This property is automatically generated in the course of a matrimonial or relational census when the "Mark Individuals" option is activated in the Report options window.

• BIRT - birth (place/date/year)

• DEAT - death (place/date/year)

• MARR - marriage (place/date/year/alter)

Binarizing this property according to place, date or period and using this binarized property for redefining spouses in order to effect a second relational or matrimonial census permits a restricted matrimonial census

• DIV - divorce (place/date/year/alter)

• BAP - baptism (place/date/year)

• BURI - burial (place/date/year)

• DECO - decoration (place/date/year)

• EDUC - education

• NATI - nationality

• OCCU - occupation

• RELI - religion

• RESI - residence

• TITL - title
