Description
Who was Shimeah?
Shimeah, also known as Shimeam, was a descendant of Benjamin mentioned in the genealogies found in 1Ch.8.32 and 1Ch.9.38. He was the son of Mikloth and the nephew of Ner, who was the father of Kish and grandfather of King Saul. The genealogies in these passages trace the ancestry and descendants of Saul, indicating that Shimeah was part of the royal family of Israel from the tribe of Benjamin.
Relations
Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.

Where this happens
The places the claims about this person reach, drawn where the gazetteer locates them. A point is where a row puts them and never where tradition does; no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.
