The New England Historic Genealogical Society developed the NGSQ descendant numbering system as part of their report format. That presentation format is used for publishing in the “_National Genealogical Society Quarterly_” and the “_New England Historical and Genealogical Register_” Superficially, some resemblance can be created with the [Detailed Descendant Book](https://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Addon:Descendant_and_Detailed_Descendant_Book_Reports) (provided you tweak a bunch of options\*)

The [TreeAndLeaf.org](https://treeandleaf.org/numbering/) website has a nice article on the format used in _NGS Quarterly_.

_If anyone has a tool that can download a GEDCOM from FamilySearch, the data above is a earlier version [Moses Moss](https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/KC72-CDV); b. 1 Jul 1701 Lyons, Stafford, England; d.1736. Replicating a report with the same data might be eaiser than starting with unknowns on both sides._
