New Information Beyond the RTF

The RTF tree covers the core Exley-Wills connection (pages 1, 3). The PDF adds:

  • Extended Wills branches: Pages 2, 4-7 cover the Earl Clifford, Elliot Ramoa, Ellen Marianne (Kennedy), Stanley (Hope), and Edith Violet (Dodd/Tenney/Faulkner) branches in detail
  • Visual layout: easier to trace relationships than the text-based RTF
  • No new Exley data beyond what the RTF contains
