crvs:FamilyRegister
A record that tracks a family unit over time, centered on a head of household. Members are reached through the linked Family, which exposes GroupMembership entries for each person with their role (head, spouse, child, etc.) and entry or exit dates. Distinct from the event-based acte tradition: family registers (koseki in Japan, hukou in China, livret de famille in France) maintain a running view of the family as vital events occur. Status captures whether the register is active, closed, split, or merged.
