Caption: Figure 9.

Relative astrometry for each object as a function of their Julian year. Within each figure, the top panel shows δ (yellow diamonds), the middle α (green squares), and the bottom the residuals for both, with the rms of the fit noted. We fit proper motion and parallax simultaneously; however, the proper motion has been removed from these plots for simplicity. Each figure represents a different object, including “B” components for confirmed binaries.
