Notes
This item is a genealogical 'Table of the Ruling Āl Bū Falāh (Bani Yās) Family of Abu Dhabi in Trucial ’Omān'. It contains 44 named and unnamed individuals (in Arabic and English) of the Āl Bū Falāḥ (Banī Yās) family of Abu Dhabi, some with birth and death dates, as well as brief biographical information.
There is also a 'Chronological list of Shaikhs of Abu Dhabi belonging to this family' with the periods of their reign, including: ’Īsa-bin-Inhiyān [‘Īsá bin Nahyān], Dhiyāb-bin-’Īsa [Dhiyāb bin ‘Īsá], Shakhbūt-bin-’Īsa [Shakhbūṭ bin ‘Īsá], Muhammad-bin-Shakhbūt [Muḥammad bin Shakhbūṭ], Tahnūn-bin-Shakhbūt [Ṭaḥnūn bin Shakhbūṭ], Khalīfah-bin-Shakhbūt [Khalīfah bin Shakhbūṭ], Sa’īd-bin-Tahnūn [Sa‘īd bin Ṭaḥnūn], and Zāid-bin-Khalīfah [Zāyid bin Khalīfah].
In addition, a section of 'Notes' is included that gives 1907 as the year of compilation, as well as other details concerning the arrangement of the table, including: the omission of distant collateral relatives and all females; 'issue' means 'male issue'; the ordering of children from the same father according to seniority from left to right, with females invariably placed at the far right; dates of birth are approximate only; and when the fact or date of death is not mentioned the person was probably alive in 1906.
