Performing database backup/restore using LSN as reference

$

Hi,

I face an issue whenever I am needed to perform a database restore process. Whenever I query the msdb..backupset for a particular database that I want to restore, I found that there are a lot of full, differential and transaction log backups that have been taken previously. 

My question is, how can I know which transaction log/differential backup is related to which full backup? I also observed that for every new Full backup, a new 'checkpoint_lsn' is created and that the following differential and transaction log backups that are related to this full backup will have their 'database_backup_lsn' similar to the 'checkpoint_lsn' of the full backup. Is my observation correct?

Thanks
