FamilySearch

Hi all, I have a question about Familysearch as I don't use it that often. If the digital file numbers are in succession of each other does this mean they are siblings? Assuming of course that they have the same family name. :)

Not guaranteed at all. Even if they're on the same volume/page its no guarantee either. Some names are extremely common in specific areas and you will get duplicates/clashes
