[Games] bananarama's KUY Congrats II - Sign-ups and Round 1
Here's my next KUY Congrats. I will take the first 10 sign-ups (not including mine), but you can still sign-up in Round 2.
It is the year 1900 and you have had your first child (gender is your choice).
Fill out the sign-up form:

DW: (date of birth)
D?: (date of birth)
Location: (it can be anywhere, not just in the United States)
IMPORTANT: Write a brief summary on the couple, how they met, their wedding, and the birth of their first child. You can put in more information if you want.
Rules:
1. Names are your choice for this round and all subsequent rounds, but try to make them believable, i.e. I don't recommend you use names like Nevaeh or Brayden.
2. If you want to drop out, tell me.
3. I might post two rounds in a day (one in the morning and one in the afternoon), but only on weekends.
4. This is a Keep-Up-Yourself congrats, so if you fall behind, complete the rounds you missed until you get to the current one.

6. In the date of birth section, the year is required, but the day and month are optional.

DH: William Luther (May 5th, 1879)
DW: Ruth Ellen [Crewe](September 12th, 1882)
DD: (July 30th, 1900)
Location: Newfoundland (At the time, was its own country)
William Mallory is the son of a merchant living in St. Johns. He is a handsome, intelligent man but he has a tendancy to always say the wrong thing at the wrong time.
Ruth Crewe is a pretty, sweet girl, with a large imagination and a feirce temper.
The two met while Ruth was off day dreaming at the railway station, waiting for her train. It was a busy day, and poor Will never having saw her; accidently stepped on her foot. Thats how it all started.
A year later the two were wed in the old church, where, to everyone's annoyance, old Ms. Parsons talked thoughout the whole ceremony about how fast her children grow up-although, she deosn't have any children, and barely knew the couple anyway. No one even knew how she got in, she wasnt invited. :)
Then in 1900, a healthy baby girl was born, named Clara Bessie, after Ruth's mother.
Theres a nice story. :) I was gonna make Ruth and Will be long time friends, but with Ruths wild imagination and temper, I thought she'd be too much like Anne of Green Gables. Oh well. :P
