Understanding the typical time lines often helps you to estimate in a practical way to discover facts about your ancestors.

For example:
- Usually the first child was born 1 year after the marriage.
- Most women married about the age of 21
- A man usually married about the age of 25
- Siblings often had similar life spans
- People sometimes gave the name of a child that died as an infant to the next child.
