  • (v. t.) The group comprising a husband and wife and their dependent children, constituting a fundamental unit in the organization of society.
  • (v. t.) Those who descend from one common progenitor; a tribe, clan, or race; kindred; house; as, the human family; the family of Abraham; the father of a family.
  • (v. t.) Course of descent; genealogy; line of ancestors; lineage.
  • (v. t.) Honorable descent; noble or respectable stock; as, a man of family.

  • (v. t.) A group of organisms, either animal or vegetable, related by certain points of resemblance in structure or development, more comprehensive than a genus, because it is usually based on fewer or less pronounced points of likeness. In zoology a family is less comprehesive than an order; in botany it is often considered the same thing as an order.
