Principle of documentation
The family tree is presented with the patriarchal principle which means that only the male eponym is involved. However, descendants named after a female Borne(e)busch are still listed (this rarely happens, except in the case of Sweden!).
Descendants of a female that was married to or in a relationship with a male Bornebusch but chose to register her children under her own last name are listed once to start with, without following up on the next generation though.
