A special relational structure, called genealogical tree, is introduced; its social interpretation and geometrical realizations are discussed. The numbers C_n,k of all abstract genealogical trees with exactly n+1 nodes and k leaves is found by means of enumeration of code words. For each n, the C_n,k form a partition of the n-th Catalan numer Cₙ, that means C_n,1+C_n,2+ ...+C_n,n = Cₙ.
Keywords: genealogical tree, Catalan number, generating function
