Kinship diagrams are tools used by geneticists, anthropologists and others who work with family trees to visually represent relationships between individuals. The kinship tree diagram form allows you to enter information about a person and their relatives, and then create a visual representation of the family tree. This can be helpful for tracking down genetic disorders or researching your ancestry. There are many online tools that allow you to create kinship tree diagrams, but some software programs also offer this functionality.
If you want to first find out how much time you will need to complete the kinship tree diagram and the number of pages it's got, here's some general information that may be of use.

Description of the kinship pattern
Zaza society1 is organized patrilinearly and patrilocally. This means that lineage depends exclusively on the father not the mother. Relatives on the mother's side including the mother herself are
Children of the daughter are not considered to be of one's blood line, they belong to the lineage of the daughter's husband (i.e. the son in law) instead. This explains the joy over the birth of a son. A male descendant guarantees the continuation of one's paternal lineage. It is noteworthy that this fact is not represented in the terminology. Both descendants of the son and of the daughter are called “torın” (turkish torun).
As an outward expression of this structure of the society, the bride moves into the house of the groom at the wedding (patrilocal residence). The relatives of the wife, the
1This summary is based on research among Sunni Zaza, living in the region of Çermik, Gerger and Siverek. The results are based on interviews with various Zaza families.
2If maternal and paternal relatives are considered equally in determining one's lineage, individuals have overlapping lineages to which they belong. This kind of pattern is called a bilateral descent, and is displayed in a typical modern Western European society.
If there are problems or dissent among the relatives of a blood line, all members are held responsible. Problems of the
Zaza society shows a pattern of unilineal descent, as each individual can be part of only one blood line.2
Marriage
When looking for a suitable marriage partner, Zaza society prefers partners of one's own blood line (endogamous marriage). The advantage of an endogamous marriage is that the descendants of the daughters will not be considered members of a different blood line, but will be considered relatives. This way, one's clan increases in number and gains more influence in society.
The disadvantage of an endogamous marriage is obvious when the marriage is not successful. Dissent and division within the clan cannot be avoided and hurt the group as a whole in the long run.
Exogamous marriages are frequent in Zaza culture as well. The advantage is seen in that disagreements between the spouses will not threaten the unity of one's clan, because the wife belongs to a different lineage.
