1. Introduction

In this kinship project, I chose Luuly, a male of twenty years old, as my interviewee. Luuly’s parents, his 56-year-old father Giap and 57-year-old mother Hue, have four children in total. Luuly, ranking the second among the children, has one older brother named Thuong, one younger brother, Tuy and a younger sister whose name is Buv. In the patrilineal side, Luuly has two uncles and one aunt, and all of them have married with their husbands or wives. Each of their family has a child. Luuly has one patrilineal parallel cousin and two patrilineal cross cousins. Since Luuly’s mother is the only child descended from his deceased matrilineal grandparents, there are no matrilineal cousins of Luuly. Xin, aging 87, is the only grandfather of Luuly at present.

1. Analysis of Assignment of Analytical Tools

In luuly’s mind, there are sixteen family members considered in his family, including his two parents, his two brothers, his sister, his grand parents, his uncles and aunts together with their children, and himself. Since his parents Giap and Hue are husband and wife, and the four children are all immediate family members. Thus the six members in his family have blood relationship with each other. There are no other people whom Luuly considers to be “kin”. The parents have given birth to Luuly himself and his brothers and sisters. Obligations and responsibilities also exist in the process of raising them up and giving them education.

Seeing from the family tree of Luuly, it is a nuclear family where Luuly lives. In the circle he draws, there are only his parents and the unmarried children living together. Therefore, this is a family where there are only two generations and that is why it is a nuclear family. In Luuly’s family, there are all together six family members, his father and mother, his three brothers and sisters, and he himself.

In Luuly’s kinship group, all children of his generation live with their own parents in their homes. Luuly’s father and mother were both born in Hu Zhi Ming City of Vietnam, but moved to live in Marietta, GA for their children’s education. And Luuly and his siblings also live there together with their parents. When they first moved to the U.S., they did not have a house to live in, for that reason, they lived with his uncle for about five years. There are no obvious difference between the settlements of the male children and female children. Except for Luuly’s family, where there are four children, all other families of his cousins have one child only. On patrilineal side, there are more family members, except Luuly’s father; there are also two uncles and one aunt with their spouses and their children. On matrilineal side, on the contrary, things are much different. With the mother of Luuly being the only child of his deceased grandparents Dao and Hoac without any brothers or sisters, there are no uncles or aunts of Luuly as well. In Luuly’s immediate family, his parents are all in their middle ages, and the children are in their teens or early twenties, it is quite likely that the children are still studying in their high schools or just begin their university years.

Luuly’s father and mother are both assembly line workers, and it is likely that the parents in the family shoulder the main burden and responsibility of raising the whole family. There is no family business in Luuly’s family, neither is there any pressure or obligation for children to follow their parents’ occupation food steps. The whole family atmosphere is harmonious and free, since Luuly’s father and mother and other siblings never give him any pressure and other intervene on job seeking matter. What is more, the parents of Luuly will not give any pressure and obligation to him to help to raise his siblings, and it is enough if he can take care of his own things well. However, in the deep heart of Luuly, there is a sense of responsibility for him to help his family, since his father and mother have spent so much money on him and raised him up through many years’ struggle and hard work, he is determined to repay them and take care of them especially when they are not in good health conditions. The situations in the families of Ann, a cross cousin of Luuly, and Soc, a parallel cousin of Luuly, are quite similar. In his parallel cousins’ families, however, in the other parallel cousin’s family, where the child Nham is already 35 years old, it is quite possible that he has already married and composed his own family. All the kin members in Luuly’s big family are in good relationship and well contacted with one another, and every member in Luuly’s family will take the responsibility to contact with other family members, and they often writer letters and send greeting cards together.

As for the inheritance, the custom in the family of Luuly is that when parents pass away, their estate will be inhered by their children. Since there are all together four children in this family, the estate of Luuly’s parents will be devided into four parts in the future, and Luuly will inhere one of the four parts. However, he does not except anything to be inhered from his grandparents. There are also rituals in Luuly’s family, when ne new year comes, all the family members will get together in his grandmother’s house to enjoy the family reunion, and this is often organized by his aunts and uncles.

III. Comparisons and Summary

There are many similarities between Luuly’s family and my own. To begin with, we both have a big family with many aunts, uncles and cousins. And most of the children in the family are still in school. Besides, the atmosphere in the family is happy and harmonious with many family get-togethers on holidays. However, what is the most unique thing in the information selected is that the family kinship structures are quite different between patrilineal side and matrilineal side of Luuly. Since there are more patrilineal branches but very few matrilineal branches, and that is where lies the biggest difference with my family. The structure of my family tree is just the opposite, with more matrilineal branches and fewer patrilineal ones. What is more, another obvious difference is that Luuly has three siblings, whereas I am the only child of my parents.

In conclusion, the kinship in Luuly’s family is quite clear. He has siblings in his own family and parallel cousins and cross cousins in his uncles’ and aunts’ families. The whole family is in good order and has a clear inherence custom. The children in Luuly’s family are mostly still in schools, and the main responsibility of raising the family is mainly shared by the parents. Luuly has many patrilineal relatives. On matrilineal side, however, there are no other relatives, since his mother is the only child of his deceased grandparents on his mother’s side. In Luuly’s family, all the family members are in good relation with each other, for they usually have close contacts on many holidays and other occasions. The grandmother links the whole family together, and when the new years come, the whole family usually get together in the grandmother’s house.
