Tables Recording Temper in Record of Family Faculties Returns

Tables recording temper across the Family Faculties returns:

The first notebook is arranged alphabetically by respondent surname, and records instances of the following characteristics across Ahnentafel numbers 1 to 15 for each respondent: "sweet temper; docile; fretful; violent; masterful".

The second notebook records the "Number of Cases of Various Tempers" for Ahnentafel system numbers 1 to 15 (inclusive of "selves, brothers, sisters"), first grouped by temper, and then by family.

The two notebooks were originally bound together, however they have since come apart.
