...no, not all of them! 
I'm looking for a list of the canon members of the Harpell and Wands families, along with their known familial connections. I'd do the research myself, but my 1E and 2E sources are far too far away from me at the moment, and I thought that someone might perhaps already have such a list compiled. I'll continue my electronic research and see what I can dig up in the way of PDF sources.
Thanks!

As I recall, this was all compiled into Kuje's 1e/2e NPC files. You might want to contact him via PM to see if he still has those files available.
If Kuje does not have them anymore, I still have them, and I could send them through E-mail (send me a PM with your E-mail address). I also have a Word-file (older than Kuje's) which is called "People of the Realms" (1e and 2e only), which has a one-line summary of the NPC and his/her/its place in the Grand Scheme of Things. |

Alaundo should have them still to, least I hope so. I lost some of them in some of my hard drive death, and or changes. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Thanks to all for their responses; I lost track of this scroll for a few days while I busied myself with other topics here at the 'Keep.
Thauramarth: I don't think I specified in my PM: I'd like to have both Kuje's files and the Word file. Thanks!  |

I wrote up a list of the Harpells over <here>, and The Hooded One gave us some backstory on the chief elders and recent events with the family. |

Okay... so we're not likely to see Ed's Harpell family tree any time soon, whether by NDA or by Ed's desire to leave Bob some creative freedom (the latter, and Ed's abiding by the former, quite noble things, but NDA's themselves are like cockroaches; if we see one that hasn't done anything for a while, we owe it to civilization to smash it underfoot). 
That being said, is there enough published "who-is-related-to-whom" information available that, once collated, could produce said family tree, or a fraction thereof? If someone can find and compile that information in this scroll, I can build the family tree. I have a nifty little program called GenoPro which I used to assemble what is known of the Obarskyr family tree (which was converted to PDF by our very own Ashe Ravenheart and is awaiting approval from Alaundo and other powers-that-be for inclusion on the CK downloads page). I'd love to be able to do the same thing for the Arunsun and Wands families (which I know are related in several places), as well as the Winters of Cormyr (whose daughters appear as royal wives no fewer than three times that I've counted); I'm hoping there will be more on the Winters in the Royal Lineage when (if?) we finally see that wondrous document.
Anyway, that's my request for information and offer to organize it.  |
