Summary: In this paper we extend the definition of Stirling numbers of the first kind by way of a special multiset. This results in a family of number triangles for which we show how to obtain ordinary generating functions for the rows and exponential generating functions for the columns. The latter are derived via a recursive process. We also indicate how to obtain formulas, in terms of factorials, generalized harmonic numbers, and polynomials, for the entries in the columns of these number triangles.
