Family 1 is the name given to a group of Greek New Testament minuscule manuscripts of the Gospels, identified by biblical scholar Kirsopp Lake.[1]: 86  These manuscripts vary in date from the 12th to the 15th century. The group takes its name from minuscule codex 1, now in the Basel University Library, Switzerland.[2]: 137  "Family 1" is also symbolized as ƒ1 in critical editions of the Greek New Testament.[3]: 58*–59*  Textual-critic Hermann von Soden refers to the group as Iη.[4] Initially named after minuscule 1, later studies have demonstrated that another minuscule, minuscule 1582, is likely a better candidate as a representation of the archetype from which the Family 1 manuscripts are descended.[5]: 119–120 [2]: 138 [1]: 87, 91 

All ƒ1 manuscripts place the Pericope adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) after John 21:25 (the final verse of the book) as a separate story, and do not include it as a part of the Gospel as it is in the majority of manuscripts.
