The following is a suggestion from George W. Archer (The Archer Association) as to the numbering sequence for the families. There are many numbering systems but this is the Spencer Numbers System (published by Ernst Spencer of New York.) which we feel would be easier to use.
This is taken from the Rowley Genealogy (Judy (..Rowley) Bramlage email: jbramlage@acm.org.) The Rowley surname is replaced by the surname Archer so it will not confuse the reader.
If you want to get right down to business, there are a few routes you can take. Click on any of the family names below. We are working on sixteen (16) branches right now. We are in the process of gathering source data, such as vital records, census entries, cemetery records, civil war pension abstracts, as they relate to the 'Archer' surname and its variants. Books relating to 'Archer' ancestors appear in the Research Information web page.
Another route you might take is using "The Archer Web Searcher"
Click on 
and it will take you to a search engine that
will look at every document contained within this website (there are over 150
pages now online) searching for your designated ancestor, list them, and tell
you how big it is. Choose a document and click on it - you will be taken
directly to it. To return, use the "BACK" button on your web browser.
Try it! You'll like it!
The idea is to save the researcher time in looking up this data. So many of us are repeating endless steps that others have already taken. Let us put our efforts in finding those facts we do not already know, and share what we have with the world.
To this end, we use a method we call 'Spencer Numbers' to distinguish Archer's with the same name from each other.
As we can, we indicate on the vital records the Spencer Number so we can tell which Archer/etc each record represents. Click Here for an explanation of the Spencer Numbers. One more thing. Please share with your fellow researchers!
The Archer database is growing rapidly, and will only continue to grow with your help.
The littlest bit of information (which might mean nothing to you) may be a vital clue for someone else. If you know that a specific vital records refers to an Archer with a Spencer Number, please let me know and I will add that to our records. It can save another researcher hours of work if they know that someone else has identified a specific person. In addition, if and when you find errors herein, do everyone a favor and let me know at labrover@aol.com.

Any suggestions for improvements on this explanation would be appreciated. I had real trouble with this and feel it still goes in circles. (Judy (..Rowley) Bramlage)
This Rowley data collection started first from the collection of material collected and published by Ernst Spencer of New York. To differentiate between the many individuals with the same name and to keep track of who had which child, Ernie established a number scheme we call the Spencer Numbers. (He is a little modest on this issue, but we find it useful to use this term. If anyone objects enough, we can change it to the Archer Numbering System.)
Composition
Each SPENCER number is composed of four parts: the Family(12-) (since there are seventeen different families) the branch hyphen ( 1-) the generation number dot (3.) a sequence number. This might be 12-1-3.005 which would be branch 12, generation 3, and the fifth identified individual of the 3rd generation.
In combination, this is associated with a specific individual. One and only one person in our database and on our web site will have that number. This is not to say that an Archer may have only one Spencer number. They will have only one Spencer number at a time, but that number may change if the branches change or if the individual is found to belong to a different family. We will make every attempt to record any time this happens.
