About this item
- Content
This item is a genealogical 'Table of the Ruling Āl Rashīd (Shammar) Family of the Jabal Shammar'. It contains 49 named and unnamed individuals (in Arabic and English) of the Āl Rashīd family of Abu Dhabi, some with birth and death dates, as well as brief biographical information.
The table was compiled by John Calcott Gaskin in 1905 based on a table by Colonel Edward Charless Ross, Political Resident A senior ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul General) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Residency. in the Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. , that appears in the Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran.

The table was revised in 1906 by Captain Stuart George Knox, Political Agent A mid-ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Agency. at Kuwait.
There is also a 'Chronological list of the Amīrs of Jabal Shammar belonging to this family' with the periods of their reign, including: ’Abdullah-bin-’Ali [‘Abdullāh bin ‘Alī], Talāl-bin-’Abdullah [Ṭalāl bin ‘Abdullāh], Mat’ab-bin-’Abdullah [Mut‘ib bin ‘Abdullāh], Bandar-bin-Talāl [Bandar bin Ṭalāl], ’Abdul Azīz-bin-Mat’ab [‘Abd al-‘Azīz bin Mut‘ib], and Sultān-bin-Hamūd [Sulṭān bin Ḥamūd]. There is also a note about the tribal origins of the family.
In addition, a section of 'Notes' is included that gives 1907 as the year of compilation (presumably by John Gordon Lorimer), as well as other details concerning the arrangement of the table, including: the omission of nearly all females; 'issue' means 'male issue'; the ordering of sons from the same father according to seniority from left to right, but all daughters are placed in the position of juniority on the extreme right; dates of birth are only approximate; and when the fact or date of death is not mentioned the person was probably alive in 1906.
