The claim to blood relationship between mem- bers of a functional family was often tlieoretical. Where the family was connected with no functional tradition it included those of actual blood descent only. The functional family, however, often included additional "kinsmen" whose relationship was assumed, not actual. This assumption resulted from the practice of family adoption.
