FICTIONAL FAMILY HISTORY TEACHING SET — 2026-10-26 All people, relationships and family documents below are invented. These are complete teaching excerpts, not historical records. The five city locations are approximate modern editorial locators. F01 — Fictional letter headed York, 1830, signed Ada Rowan: "I am writing from York. I have begun keeping a notebook of the places our family remembers." F02 — Fictional recollection attributed to Ada decades later: "I spent time in Kingston around 1840; I cannot recall the exact year." F03 — Fictional notebook entry, 1850: "Eli and I visited Bytown this week." A visit does not establish residence. F04 — Fictional letter headed Montreal, 1885, signed Eli Rowan: "I am sending these copied pages from Montreal for Morgan to keep." F05 — Fictional postcard headed Vancouver, 1910, signed Morgan Rowan: "I am writing from Vancouver. The earlier family pages are still with me." Relationships are stipulated for this invented exercise: Eli is Ada's child; Morgan is Eli's child. No document proves an actual family's genealogy.
