The Crewe family has been living happily for some time now, but unfortuantly back in 1901(January) she suffered a miscarriage, and what depressed for a while. But then a couple of monthes later she realized she was pregnant again, and on December 24th, gave birth to Roy Louis Crewe. Wasn't that a nice Christmas present?

DS: Oliver Sebastian Neumann (October/03/1903) (1½)
DS: Solace (April/11/1905) stillbornLocation: Salem, OregonFritz (nickname that Millie gave to Humphrey) and Millie continue to live happily on the farm. With the first child, they decided that Millie would get to pick the first name, and that they would use two family middle names. This tradition has continued to work so far...(Rose) Mabel is named after Fritz's mother's late sister, and Irene is after Millie's mother's name.(Hazel) Marie is named after Fritz's father's sister who died in childhood, and Ruth is for Millie's father's sister.(Oliver) Sebastian is a family middle name, carried by his father Fritz (who was the oldest of 3 boys and 1 girl - all deceased except for Fritz, of course!), grandfather, great-grandfather, and was his great-great-grandfather's first name. Neumann is his mother's maiden name.There was a bit of an argument when Oliver was born. Fritz's uncle (father's brother) passed away the spring before Oliver was born. Fritz was heartbroken because his uncle had been living on the farm for the last 14 years - ever since his own family's house had burnt down, killing his entire family. However, Millie just couldn't bring herself to like the name Lothar, no matter how kind the man had been. The argument was only settled when Gilbert (Fritz' father) asked why they didn't Lothar's middle name, Oliver.With Lothar now gone, Fritz has no extended family left. However, Millie's younger brother, Alexander (not the youngest, but the 16 year-old) has moved out to the farm to help out. This helps Millie's parents out, and helps Sascha out by providing him with a small income.

Two years later Joseph and Mary had another daughter. Mary wanted to name her after her two younger sisters Anna and Emma, but Joseph wanted to use the name of his favourite Aunt Ginny. He also thought that two Anna's or Emma's in the family at the same time would be confusing. So in the end they decided to use their middle names Josephine and Beatrice and also their aunts name.

DW: Rosemme Esther, 24 (b. December 18, 1881)
DD: Zanti Esther Grace, 5 (b. May 30, 1900)
DS: Adexion Kelsey, 3 (b. July 6, 1902)
DS: Mox Britton, nb (b. August 12, 1905)Britton and Rosemme met when they were only teenagers; he was sixteen and she was fifteen. They knew it was love right away, but their families were against it-- Britton was from a wealthy, prestigious family, and Rosemme was not. So, for some time, they did not see each other.Britt's parents set up dates for him, young, pretty girls they found suitable. And he'd entertain them to his parent's wishes, but his thoughts were always on Rosemme. On the evening of her eighteenth birthday, he appeared outside her window and asked her to come away with him. And, without hesitation, she did. They ran away together, leaving the state. Britt had an old friend from school that was kind enough to give them a place to stay until they had enough money for their own home. So both of them worked to each money-- Britt did odd jobs, whatever he could find, and Rosemme would nanny and tutor small children. But only a month after they'd left home, Rosemme informed Britt that she was expecting his child.They married quickly after she told him, and she wasn't even nineteen when she gave birth to a daughter they called Zanti. By then, they had a small apartment of their own, but Britt was still working very hard, getting small jobs where he could.
