from a booklet called "Up the Beatles' Family Tree" published in 1966. It was published by the centre for heraldic and genealogical research, in an attempt to get young people interested in researching their own ancestry. Found here.

I like that Ringo has a wedding cake with a george guitarist on it. (Paul's ancestor Robert Clegg was a coroner apparently, not a confused murderer.)

WindClan Family Tree Diagnosis
Tumblr media
[ID: The WindClan family tree as of ASC. It is two families.]
Back in October of last year, I made an initial diagnosis where you can see some fun old concepts for my rewrite project (it's fun to see what I went with and what I didn't), but in the hopes of helping out everyone looking to make their own family trees for WindClan, here is an updated, straightforward diagnosis!
As you can see... WindClan is pretty barren, bloodline-wise. You won't see major characters like Kestrelwing or Harestar on this chart, because they don't have any canonical family.
In spite of it being ThunderClan's neighbor, the writers have done nothing with its lineages. So, for the most part, you're building connections that are completely new. The one tangle in all of WindClan is a doozy...
Heathertail and Breezepelt are related in two places.
Firstly, through Hickorynose and Meadowslip, she was second cousins with him. Secondly, and FAR MORE EGREGIOUSLY, she was his first cousin once removed through Ashfoot and Onestar.
So the quickest and easiest fix is simply to undo Ashfoot being his sister. If you want to clean even deeper, you can remove Sorrelshine as Deadfoot's sibling.
And, that aside, WindClan is your blank canvas.

My sibling: So, Arwen is half elf half human, right?
Me: No. She's. Wait. Wait I need to draw a family tree.
(5 minutes later)
Me: We need math for this.
My sibling: I'll help!
(15 more minutes later)
Me: Alright, so after going through that entire family tree and calculating every single percentage of species in all these people, this now lands us with the conclusion that Arwen is 78,125% elf, 18,75% human and 3,125% maia.
My sibling: I'm so proud of us.

The Abhorsen family tree(as close as I can make it) SPOILERS BELOW, this is a long one
Tumblr media
As disjointed as it is, The Abhorsens are highlighted in green, with their known place in the timeline. There are so many i couldn't connect, and only some are named. Blue are members of the Clayr Bloodline present in the tree, and orange are members of the Royal Bloodline. Un-highlighted means they are either related by marriage/partnership or did not obtain the Abhorsen title. This is a link to the wiki where i was able to piece together some of them.https://oldkingdomwiki.fandom.com/wiki/Abhorsen , There are some i don't mention that have a concrete placement.
The clearest concrete Abhorsen however (Other than their namesake) is Kalliel, who is number 12, while 13 is her unnamed grandson. Even Clariel/Chlorr is a part of the family(Her grandfather-Tyriel) at roughly 600 years before Sabriel/Lirael.
There are 16 more named, but out of order Abhorsens. I have done my best to put them in order(I just don't know their official position)
Soraniel (m)
Feriniel (f)
Madarael (f)
Kariniel (f)
Tyriel, Teriel(A-I-W, before death) and Yannael(A-I-W, before Belatiel)
Belatiel
Jaramiel
Jerizael
Alleil
Herraniel/Tizaniel (siblings, but unknown order)
Then of course, there are named ones who I dont even have a hint for:
Cassiel (Lirael wields their bells)
Yezael
Ulamiel
Bannatiel
Keramitiel
Anyway, I hope this is remotely correct and that you enjoyed
EDIT: Looking at this, it looks like Elinor and Terciel are distant cousins? Since the family tree is funky, but the wiki says Elinor is "Of the line of Tizanael", she's also descended from an Abhorsen
(G-G-Grandparent Jeremiel) herself.
EDIT 2: Added names i forgot that have rough placement

Who was the most difficult to fix in the family trees?
Honestly, any cats who have no relations to anyone else. Cats show up, have no family, and disappear unceremoniously, and it's anyone's guess who's related to whom.

Happy BHM to my fellow AAs!!
My name is Ariel and I am an amateur genealogist. It’s actually something I really enjoy and have spent countless hours going through archives to construct my family tree and those of others.
In the spirit of the season, I’m offering my ancestry investigatorial services to help you build your family tree & trace it back as far as we can go. Obviously for us things get sticky around the late 1800s as far as documentation goes, but I have been able to trace a couple familial lines up to enslaved individuals arriving in Virginia in the 1600s. I’ve also been able to find a lot of fascinating records- one of which was the enslaved “marriage certificate” of my great great great (3x) grandparents. Obviously I can’t promise anything but I will search as diligently as I can 🫡
I’m doing this on a pay what you can basis. $5, $20, whatever y’all can afford. I’ll just need your family names & info- the more you know the better. Your grandparents’ names, birthdates, and birth places are a great place to start but if there are some holes you don’t know I’ll do my best to help you figure it out. Just lmk! 🤎

Family tree
This family tree is a theory, maded by me, to try to explain the powers of some characters.
Tumblr media
In some corners of the image, I placed several guides so that it can be better understood.
It looks complicated, but right now I explain everything. 
This timeline starts at 3,000 years ago, with the creator of the Pixls and his family. (You can see it above). It is explicitly known that the creator of the Pixls was a HUMAN, and we can only assume that his wife was from the tribe of Ancients; they both had two children who did not manifest powers. Except for the daughter, since the magician, by turning her into Pixl, obtains her powers. But she never had a lineage; and eventually she become in Shadoo.
But the son... Some say he survived the accident that killed his mother. However, he, seeing all the destruction caused by the Pixl War because of the Dark Prognosticus, decides to hide and take the mysterious book behind him, causing some to also flee with it, founding the Darkness tribe. As time goes by, he proclaims himself the Count of the tribe, causing his legacy to pass from generation to generation until reaching Blumiere (the present).
But this does not end here. There was a moment in history where a human (descendant of Merloo), paired with a member of the tribe of darkness and they had a son, Dimentio. (The image box explains this in more detail).
If you want to know more about my theory that Dimentio is impure, go to the first part of this book, where everything is explained in more detail.
Technically, the image is self-explanatory.
There were parts where there is not so much sense (How Bestivious seems to be Merloo's own son), but this is a pure matter of technicality and space, since this family tree began 3,000 years ago. In a period of 3,000 years, that person will have approximately 167 descendants. Calculations.
(But ask me how I do in math at school...)
Second family tree:
Tumblr media
S
ome things I need to explain:
Obviously this family tree is more bigger, because transcends 2,000 years before, with the Pixl war. But, it still understand. The rest is self-explanatory.
The pixels' magic that converts them, looks into the deeper of their soul to obtain their skills.
AND, one more theory: 
Humans are 'good' at magic and contain a lot of it within themselves, but since they do not have powers it can be difficult for them to control it, or even just expose it, and those who can are few. Like the creator of the Pixls; his daughter is also a "mix" between ancient and human, and she had so much power that she still persists and became Pixl Queen, and her brother survived the accident and founded a tribe with great mystical power. And the Pixls could have been humans before they were turned.
Thanks for reading my crazy theories :)
And I would also love to know your opinion about my theories!
Or, if you want to share your theories, be welcome!

Crossover Universe Family Trees + more Lore!
It's finally done! :3 I decided to also add some backstories about my OCs (especially from TaE Family) bcs I'm sure there will be relationships that would give you questions (and you might have more questions anyway lol).
I apologize for the bad English and grammatical errors as always.
Enjoy! 💕
Explanations of icons and lines:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Maud and Umar were in non-marital relationship since Al Mualim didn't allow assassins marriages. The only thing the master allowed them is give birth to a child who will become a future assassin. The birth was fatal for Maud and later Umar was executed by the Saracens.
Cyril and Rozália are in an unknown status since they left their daughter in an orphanage. It's still not known why they did it...
Tami and Jarrod dated for less than two years, then they broke up for losing passion in their love, but still remained as friends.
Altaïr and Adha were in a secret relationship. Once they escaped from the Holy Lands, Adha lost her life due to Templars and Altaïr unknowingly entered the Crossover Universe, that's how they got separated.
Altaïr blamed himself for Adha's death and decided he would never fall in love, but then he fell in love with Tami. Later they got married and had a daughter named Sabina.
Sabina in her teen years falls in love with a blacksmith boy named Pablo who has a shy younger brother named Rafael (yes, they are from Coral Island and I added them into Crossverse bcs why not? 😂).
Altaïr and Desmond are distant relatives (ancestor and descendant), despite both being from different AUs.
Desmond once hooked up with an unknown woman for one night and then she gave birth to Elijah. After the death of Elijah's mother, the boy decided to search for his biological father in an unknown world.
Tumblr media
All of them come from the alternate universe of Azeroth. The exceptions are Tarion, Tanisa and Relante, who were born in the Crossover Universe.
Maiev and Illidan were in a relationship before the War of the Ancients, but broke up when Illidan became more interested in Tyrande, who was actually more loyal to his twin brother Malfurion and also she adopted Shandris. When Illidan betrayed his kind and injured Jarod, Maiev's younger brother, Maiev became enraged and became a Warden since she was not allowed to kill him, but somewhere deep down in her heart she still loved him.
Almost 10, 000 years later Maiev unexpectedly became pregnant and had a daughter named Ellynina. Maiev knew that her daughter was also a Betrayer's, but she decided to keep it a secret from everyone, including her child. 300 years later, Illidan escaped from prison and the Wardens chased him all the way to Outland, while Ellynina remained in Azeroth.
Taino and Talar are twins and the sons of Daria Moonshade and Fehnaal Starfeather. Their parents were proud of Talar as a skilled warrior, while the Taino struggled with mastering druid magic and he studied history of Azeroth instead.
One day, their village was attacked by an orc clan called Warsong and they killed their mother. They managed to escape and survived the Battle of Mount Hyjal conflict, which unfortunately the night elves sacrificed their immortality to save Azeroth and stop the Burning Legion. And for that, Fehnaal fell ill and died (the same fate happened to Shalasyr, Jarod's wife, a few years later). After their father's death, the twins got wrinkles, which indicated that it was time to become independent and go out into the world.
Talidea was actually born as a human named Dea to Trisha and Cooper Snowart, who died during the Second War and Dea ended up in an orphanage. Life in the orphanage was hell for her. Later, she was placed in a foster family, but unfortunately it was the same. At age 20, Dea became an Adventurer and chose the Mage class like her mother.
Soon she met Ellynina for the first time and began to follow her because she had been fascinated by the Night Elves since they had joined the Alliance and started call her Elphina. Ellynina didn't like Dea at first, but as they traveled together they grew closer and became like sisters - the birth of DaE Duo (Dea and Elphina's Duo).
The pair managed to travel to Outland, where they found Maiev imprisoned. She revealed to Elphina that Illidan was her father, which angered Elphina that her mother had kept it a secret all her life and ran away. Dea cheered her up and they preferred to continue their journey. Even though Elphina was angry at Maiev, she hoped that they would meet again.
A few years later, the pair met Taino and Talar for the first time and became friends - renaming to DaE Squad. Dea had a crush on Taino, but she was ashamed of the fact that she was a human and he was a Night Elf, while Elphina was annoyed by Talar. Together they traveled to Northrend to fight the Lich King and his Scourge. In one battle on a snowy mountain against the undead, Taino and Dea were killed by an avalanche, leaving Elphina and Talar devastated, which actually brought them closer together.
The bodies of Taino and Dea were found by the death knights and taken to the Lich King. One necromancer experimented on Dea's body and turned her into a Night Elf and shortly after Taino and Dea (now as Talidea) were revived and became death knights under the Lich King's command. Taino changed his surname to Teron after the first death knight named Teron to forgot his previous life.
Although most death knights are emotionless and memoryless and always obey the Lich King at his word, surprisingly Taino and Talidea gradually regained their emotions and memories and resisted the Lich King's commands, even the two eventually fell in love. The Scourge was about to kill them for this, but luckily the pair managed to escape and were able to rejoin the Alliance. They also reunited with Elphina and Talar and together defeated the Lich King with the other adventurers. They then renamed themselves the TaE Squad (Talidea's and Elphina's Squad) and traveled across Azeroth to fight anything what threatens Azeroth.
But seven years later, Teldrassil, the world tree and main home of the Kaldorei, was set on fire by the Horde, which started the Fourth War. TaE Squad tried to escape from the fire using a boat, which was unfortunately hit by gunfire, they fell into the water and accepted their fate... Until they woke up on the beach of Cheetah's Valley. They decided to stop fighting and start again. Tarion was born first, and Tanisa and Relante three years later. At that time, they eventually renamed themselves TaE Family.
Few years later, Maiev somehow managed to get to the Crossover Universe to find her daughter and finally reunited with her. Even though they still had some misunderstandings from the past, they finally make up with each other.
Tumblr media
Elvan and Anja Nambinga had a daughter Nathalia together, and seven years later Emma was born, but Anja died during childbirth. After this tragedy, Nathalia began to hate her little sister. Elvan tried his best to take care of his daughters despite suffering from cancer which unfortunately after three years he lost the fight against.
Then the girls ended up in Gepardia's orphanage where Nathalia ditched Emma and later she was moved to Ashte'quel where she was adopted into a suitable family. Nevertheless, Nathalia regretted what she had done to her younger sister and hoped that one day they would meet again and she would say sorry.
The Hunter triplets were born at the Harmony Side's Laboratory in Fouria, where experiments were being conducted to find a vaccine against the Green Flu virus. They and their parents, Ranger and Lightear, are mutant Hunters and experiments. They developed immunity against all diseases, resembled closer to a human and even managed to enable human speech. But they were still aggressive and at times ruled by their instincts. Despite this, scientists wanted to create more medicines and vaccines from them. While the Hunters hated humans, on other side Hoody Boy (at the time named Subject GFEXH-27 by scientists) was fascinated by humans and even got along well with the two scientists.
When the triplets were nine years old, there was an accident in the laboratory, which the Infected and mutants took advantage of and escaped from the laboratory, killing hundreds of scientists and guards. The family and some experiments managed to get on the ship without the crew noticing, and it sailed to Havaykia. The ship was beached near Pecker's Hills when the crew eventually discovered the stowaways who had managed to escape into the mountains and after a long journey settled in an abandoned town now called the Infected's Refuge.
The family joined the pack of Hunters, where the triplets grew up. Unfortunately, Hoody Boy was bullied by the others for being the weakest of the group and was always protected by his two older brothers, Southy and Northy since they share a strong bond.
Once Hoody Boy was patrolling the territory and noticed a human woman with a child in her arms, who was surrounded with one Hunter. He pounced on his packmate so that the woman and child ran away. For that, the pack considered him a traitor and banished him from Infected's Refuge. His brothers and mother were devastated, while Ranger was ashamed that he was his father.
Ryland was adopted by Charger since many Hunters ditched him due to having Charger DNA like for example he couldn't pounce high. Charger taught him his abilities, which Ryland easily learned and became stronger than the average Hunter. When Ryland grew up, he left the Infected's Refuge and wandered the savanna. There he met Hoody Boy and both of them grew closer as they were outsiders of their kind, but once they split up when the Survivors attacked.
Hoody Boy ran to hide at the TaE Family's Ranch. Thinking that he would be dead, TaE Family saw him not as a monster, but as an abandoned person who needed help as they found out he can talk. Thanks to his story, the TaE Family changed their opinion about the Hunters to a positive one, that not all of them are evil and allowed him to join the family. Hoody Boy was happy that find his true "pack" and was given the real given name Vincent. Some time he met Ryland again, confessed his feelings for him and became mates.
After a few months Southy and Northy started missing their younger brother and decided to find him. They followed his tracks and scent and after a week managed to reach the TaE Family's Ranch. They were shocked that their brother lived with humans and night elves peacefully. Even though they didn't trust them, they still joined the family for their brother and were given the names Mike and Tyler.
After a while, Mike and Emma had a crush on each other regardless of being human and Hunter and later got married, Mike took the surname Nambinga. Together they had children, Jasmine and Blake, who surprisingly looked like normal humans, despite Hunter's genes.
The Hunter Brothers, the Infected, who regained the ability to speak but still relied on instinct. They used to live in the Infected's Refuge and found it boring there, so they left it and have been terrorizing anyone in their path ever since.
Tumblr media
Gavin was born to Rocco and Elisabeth Fishrod. At the age of four, his father cheated on his mother and the two divorced. Unfortunately, Elisabeth could not cope with the divorce, so she began to take alcohol and drugs and abused her son.
Soon the social workers took Gavin to Gepardia's orphanage and Elisabeth ended up in recovery. Since then, no one knows what happened to her. Meanwhile, Rocco lives in Greentree and is the best fisherman on the island. Maybe one day Gavin will meet him…
Takuya was born as the first son to Sugino and Rina Hidarihi. His parents couldn't handle him, because they were still young and inexperienced parents at that time, so they decided to go on a trip without their son, in fact, to abandoning him.
When Takuya got to Gepardia's Orphanage, his parents went to Oakheart City and later had a second son named Takara and loved him very much. Surely, one day, the first child will find them…
Tumblr media
Jarrod was born in Fortress of Red and Lennon and Clara were born in Mann Co. City.
Jarrod's parents, Esther and Jasper Fastrunner, divorced when he was six years old and his mother took care of him, but at the age of fourteen, Esther was murdered and his father recruited him into the RED Team, where he trained him to be a perfect mercenary.
Lennon, Jarrod's cousin, was raised by Linda Baseck. His father, Kelvin, was killed in battle before he was born. At the age of fifteen, Jasper came to his sister and convinced her to let Lennon go to the RED Team. With a heavy heart, she agreed and Lennon trained at the Fortress of Red with his cousin. Half a year passed since the start of training, Lennon received a letter that his mother died in a car accident and he was devastated.
Clara lived with her parents, Chloe and Evan Willow, who worked for the BLU Team. Before becoming a mercenary, she used to hang out with Lennon and they were best friends despite being from two opposing factions. But one day, when Clara came home from school, she found both her parents shot dead. Shortly after, Conall, who is her father's younger brother, found her. He took her under his wing and traveled with her to the Fortress of Blue where he began to train her.
Before dating Tami, Jarrod was in a relationship with Bianca McPrice. He met her while training and got so close that they started dating. They both were strong and dangerous duo, but unfortunately few years later she manipulated and mentally abused him, showing her real self.
Six years later, they entered the battle and fought for territories. Lennon and Clara met again on the battlefield and from then on secretly met every night until they fell in love and later would be married. No one knew about their meetings until one evening Jarrod followed Lennon and found him talking to a member of the rival team. He tried to convince his cousin that Clara was manipulating him to gain an advantage for her team. Fortunately, Lennon convinced him that it was not true and that he really loved Clara. Jarrod understood and promised not to tell anyone about their secret meetings.
Jarrod later found out that Conall was his mother's murderer and decided to hunt him down and kill him. But Conall told him the truth: he was actually hired to assassinate his mother by… his father… Jarrod fell into depression from the shock and betrayal and wondered what to do.
Clara later found out about this when Conall discovered that she had fallen in love with the enemy. She lost all respect for her uncle saying: "If you say I'm a traitor because I fell in love with an enemy from RED… So aren't you a traitor as well for cooperating with an enemy from RED and kill innocents?" and then she ran away to find Lennon and Jarrod.
Lennon found Jarrod in his depressed state and found out from him what Jasper had done. This infuriates him and they decide to confront him. Jasper realized he couldn't get away with it and confessed that he had Esther murdered because she wouldn't let Jarrod become a mercenary. But in addition, he said that he saw Lennon meeting Clara and the whole team already knows about it. Jarrod had enough, he shot his father with a scattergun and they both fled the RED base as fast as they could.
They met Clara who was fighting against Bianca. Jarrod yelled at his girlfriend to leave Clara alone, which Bianca realized Jarrod was also a traitor. Thankfully Clara managed to stun her into unconsciousness and the three of them ran away, towards a new beginning...
Tumblr media
The Batter, the "original Purifier", may have been distantly or closely related to King Myron, as the two are almost alike, but this is unknown.
Cleanth is from the royal family of Pure Kingdom. King Myron and his wife queen Priscilla ditched him due to his curse. The only family member who cared about him was his older sister Luise who had an arranged marriage with Nixon and they had a son together named Reign who wanted to be king too soon. Cleanth was taken care of by the castle cleaners. Cleaning and cleanliness calmed him while his parents and others were mean to him.
One evening Cleanth as twenty-six years old was cleaning the fountain. Nixon took advantage of this and tried to drown him there, seeing him as competition for his future throne. To defend himself, Cleanth transformed into his monster form for the first time and accidentally threw Nixon into a rock, hitting his head hard on it and bleeding to death. When the royals found out and thought Cleanth had killed Nixon to claim the throne for himself and that he knew how to transform into a monster now, they exiled him from Pure Kingdom.
Cleanth sailed to the Mann Islands, where he could live in peace, but found that these islands were full of war and chaos. While traveling he met Jarrod, Lennon and Clara. He had never seen any other humanoid in his life, so he thought they were his kind, "colored Purifiers". The Scout Trio accepted him and found out about Havaykia, where there are no wars and all factions are at peace there.
But they were searched for by some RED Team members who knew about their betrayal and chased them. Cleanth turned into a monster again and killed them all. After the battle, Cleanth thought the Scouts would be afraid of him, so he wanted to leave, but they stopped him and thanked him, which warmed Cleanth's heart.
They finally managed to get to Mann Co. City, where they sailed to Havaykia from there. After a two-month voyage, they reached Gepardia and accepted a job at the TaE Family's Ranch, where it eventually became their permanent home.
Zacharie the Merchant is just there, chilling. Anyways, he travels around the island selling goods.
Tumblr media
Beatrice and Monty own a farm where they grow the best crops and raise the best livestock. They are good friends and business partners of TaE Family. The two are happily married and have children Ezekiel and Tilly, who are also friends of the Hoodie Four.
Mayur was once married to a woman who left him and their daughter Naya for another man. So Mayur had to take care of his child alone even though he works as a cook. Fortunately, his daughter appreciates him very much for everything.
Naya, like the Palins siblings, is a friend of the Hoodie Four and loved going to their house. Then she and Ezekiel fell in love and later got engaged.

A different type of family tree: Applying family history concepts to animation
Tumblr media
"Modern Cartoon Family Tree 2.0" by AlexB9598w
This family tree is unlike any other tree I've seen before. I thought I'd do a fun one this week. It's not focused on a specific character or on the draw of family, the latter which I wrote about before. Instead, this shows the connection between people and their different shows. It all starts out with Donovan Cook and moves down from there. I think this tree is interesting in that it shows the connection between these shows. However it is also, you could say, limiting. I say that because it doesn't exactly focus on the interconnection between people. I know that, for instance, that Rebecca Sugar and Ian Jones-Quartey are married, but this chart only shows them as writers. Similarly, I know about the controversy which enveloped Twelve Forever, leading to the end of the show, and Shadi Petosky, a trans woman, becoming the executive producer of the show and having her own project on the way. Since I don't know most of these shows, I'm narrowing it down to the shows I do know and working back from there. Let's start with one of my favorite shows, Cleopatra in Space, and focusing on the executive producer of that show, Doug Langdale.
Reprinted from my Genealogy in Popular Culture WordPress blog. Originally published on August 28, 2020.
Tumblr media
I then expanded this by looking at the companies behind each one of these productions, and it starts to look more like a bit of a tree, showing the parent companies and production companies. Keep in mind that Sony Pictures Television, as of 2002, owns both Columbia divisions, so the chart would look a little different now. Additionally, DreamWorks is now owned by Universal Pictures, a division of NBC Universal, which is, itself, owned by Comcast. So, the chart would look different today.
Tumblr media
Now, I wanted to expand this a little more, so I originally wanted to look at all those who have been listed as being on the Cleopatra in Space crew (herein called Cleo Crew), apart from Doug Langdale. Since that was 40 people, I narrowed it down to storyboarders, which consisted of 18 people in total: Aaron Brewer,  Abigail Davies, Adam Temple, Andrew Marshel, Bob Suarez, Chris Ybarra, Derek Thompson, Eugene Huang, Gary Ye, Ingrid Kan, Kevin Slawinski, Laurianne Uy, Samantha Suyi Lee, Scooter Tidwell, Thalia Tomlinson, Topher Parnell, and Wei Li. From there, I broke it down by the overlapping shows that they had worked on. [1] I ended up narrowing it down mainly to DreamWorks shows, as you'll see in the chart below:
Tumblr media
We learn a lot from this. For one, Chris Ybarra and Bob Suarez had worked together and/or on two of the same shows: Big Mouth and Turbo Fast. Additionally, Adam Temple and Wei Li had both worked on Carmen Sandiego, while Abigail "Abby" Davies and Laur Uy had worked on Spirit Riding Free. We also find that Bob Suarez and Laur Uy worked on the same show too. Even more fascinating is the fact that ALL of these productions were on Netflix and most, apart from Carmen Sandiego, were tied to DreamWorks. We can conclude that many of the storyboarders probably knew each other and/or had worked with one another in the past. If we combine this with the information about Doug Langdale I showed earlier, it would mean that Langdale worked on the same team as Bob Suarez and Laur Uy on The Adventures of Puss and Boots. These connections were likely part of the reason they were hired in the first place.
In sum, this is a unique family tree of sorts, which shows connections between those in the animation industry. You can see who the "parents" (like DreamWorks and Houghton Mifflin) are and who the "children" (like Bob Suarez and Laur Uy) are as well. This sort of analysis is much better than the "modern cartoon family tree" shown at the beginning of that post. That post almost treats the connections between individuals as static. I may do another one about LGBTQ animations or something else. We'll see what happens! As always, comments are welcome, as I'm deeply unsure about what I'll write about next.
