wikitree — WikiTree genealogies (1400-2012)

Description

Network of family relationships among the profiles of WikiTree, a collaborative online genealogy website, collected by M. Fire and Y. Elovici, who used it to study the lifespans of people and their relatives. Nodes are profiles of persons (anonymized), and directed edges are relationships between them (the meaning of the edge direction is not documented). The network has about 1.4 million nodes and 9.2 million edges.

The network has the following properties:

  • (Node) name: the anonymized profile identifier.
  • (Edge) type: the type of the relationship, coded as an integer from 0 to 3 (stored as a string, since 1,066 edges have no type, given by an empty string). The meaning of the codes is not documented in the upstream data (the cited paper analyzes parent–child and spouse relationships).
