Notes
This item is a genealogical 'Table of the Āl Subāh (’Atbi) Ruling Family of Kuwait'. It contains 79 named and unnamed individuals (in Arabic and English) of the Āl Sabāḥ (al-‘Utūb) family of Kuwait, some with birth and death dates, as well as brief biographical information.
There is also a 'Chronological list of Shaikhs of Kuwait belonging to this family' with the periods of their reign, including: Subāh [Ṣabāḥ], ’Abdullah-bin-Subāh [‘Abdullāh bin Ṣabāḥ], Jābir-bin-’Abdullah [Jābir bin ‘Abdullāh], Sabāh-bin-Jābir [Ṣabāḥ bin ‘Abdullāh], ’Abdullah-bin-Cubāh [‘Abdullāh bin Ṣabāḥ], Muhammad-bin-Subāh [Muḥammad bin Ṣabāḥ], and Mubārak-bin-Subah [Mubārak bin Ṣabāḥ].
In addition, a section of 'Notes' is included that gives 1908 as the year of compilation, as well as other details concerning the arrangement of the table, including: the ordering of sons from the same father according to seniority from left to right; the ommission of all females; 'issue' means 'male issue'; dates of birth, and in some cases death, are approximate only; and when the fact or date of death is not mentioned the person was probably alive in 1907.
