DS: Andrew George [1904](11)
DS: James Robert "Jamie" [1909](6)It is 1915. Bob and Beth have not had any more children. Sadly, in 1914, their second daughter Laura May died of complications from pnuemonia and whooping cough. Victoria was devastated by the loss of her little sister and has still not gotten over her death. Bob and Beth also took Laura May's death hard, but they are trying to be strong for their children. Andrew was also very upset, but seems to have recovered and spends most of his time playing with the other neighborhood boys his age. Jamie was very confused about Laura May's death at first, but he has finally realized that she isn't coming back.

The last five years have been grueling for the Starks. With the Great War being a year old already, purse strings have gotten tighter. Mack still hasn't had the job opportunity to move to partner and he and the family are praying that he doesn't get called to duty. Will on the other hand is ready to fight for his country but still has at least 2 more years before he can enlist. Two children have passed, Laurie and little Leona Rose. Laurie's heart finally gave out on him and Leona didn't survive the night of her birth. Some say that the grief Josie suffered from loosing Laurie affected her pregnancy with Leona making both mother and child weak. But the Lord did bless them with two more children, Johnny & Meg.

Meg & the 4 eldest children have all been taught to drive the car so that someone can go for help if need be.Location: Rugby, England

While in Kansas City the family found out that Johan's great grandpa, Clayton Nicolas. Clay left the family a huge sum, $500 (an equivalent of $10,407.43 nowadays).
