- During the nineteenth century, property-holding families within all stations and classes throughout Europe developed systems of marriage that linked the same families across generations. Chronicles of individual families present many forms of systematic and unsystematic repeated exchanges, and while many particular marriages may seem arbitrary, when viewed in the context of all the alliances established by a set of kin, they often fit into a logic of reciprocity or demonstrate systemic features. Certainly there were no rules that created the expectation or the necessity of marrying kin or prescribing choices directed towards particular kindred, clans, lineages, or patri- or matrilines.
