Tagname: Id
Description: END_ID
The Id may be computer generated, or it may be the name of the person, ie
it is allowed to contain spaces and mixed case.

If an Id which is used in another record in the same file then it should
be preceded by a dot, which indicates to processing programs that it is
viable to attempt to process this Id.

For example
Id: John Smith I
End: John Smith I

Id: John Smith II
Father: .John Smith I
End: John Smith II

Note that programs which process references which are not internal to
the file SHOULD NOT assume that (for example Henry VIII) as a reference
in the incoming file is the same as an internal Henry VIII which they
may already have in their database - although programs may link in new
entries after some sensibility checks, and possibly a human verification.

END_ID
End: Id

Description: Gives the father of the current person

Tagname: Mother
End: Mother

Tagname: Born
Description:: END_BORN
This is a date, which may not be complete (i.e. it may not have the day
and month)
It may need some way to indicate that a date is approximate.

Programs which output such dates MUST NOT output information which they
do not hold.

Programs processing input which indicates that everyone was born on the
1st of January of the appropriate year SHOULD be very suspicious of the
input data
END_BORN
End: Born
