Jack, It sounds like what we call a Family Group Sheet here in America. There a different formats. Here's some images of various family group sheets: http://goo.gl/G8Y6M
I think Registo de Nucleo Familar is the Register of the Nuclear Family. If I remember right from my college sociology class, a nuclear family is mom, dad, and the kids. An extended family means that the grandparents or other relatives live in the household in addition to mom, dad, and the kids. A family group sheet (show in the URL above) is for mom, dad, and the kids. Registo de Grupo Familar is the family group sheet. I think it's 2 different names for the same thing. I've also seen pedigree charts called ancestor charts. I don't know the terms you mention. Maybe someone else can help out there.
