Description
This interface if for a Family object representing a family of
biological objects. A generic implementation for this may be
found a Bio::Cluster::Family.

APPENDIXTop
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.
Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
newTop
  We dont mandate but encourage implementors to support at least the
  following named parameters upon object initialization.

 Arguments          Description
 ---------          -----------
 -family_id         the name of the family
 -description       the consensus description of the family
 -annotation_score  the confidence by which the consensus description is 
                    representative of the family
 -members           the members belonging to the family
 -alignment         the multiple alignment of the members
