Help[Games] Re: Victorian Era Generational CAF - Part 1
in reply to a message by Ty Firmin
Arthur Thornton is a somewhat self-important but very talented blacksmith and farrier (maker of horseshoes) living in CITY. In 1826, at the age of 22, he meets 20-year-old Margaret, a physician's daughter, and they fall in love quickly. The two are fairly well-off and get married in 1827. The two purchase a modest yet beautiful home in the city. During the day, DW mends clothing items for a small fee and attends teas in the afternoon with several good friends of hers. Only a year after their marriage, DW gives birth to a beautiful baby boy with curly brown hair.
DH (1804): Arthur Malcolm Caradoc Thornton
DW (1805): Margaret Clothilde (nee. Hill) Thornton
DS1 (1828): Darius James
A year after Darius's birth, DW finds out she is pregnant once again. In the spring of 1830, DH and DW welcome Alexander, their second son. Alexanderis such a happy, easy baby, and both parents are thrilled. Shortly after his birth, Margaret's mother falls ill and passes away. The family mourns - Margaret was especially fond of her mother and misses her dearly. Margaret's father is also grieved and moves to Leeds to be nearer to his daughter, Margaret, his only surviving child. He becomes a household presence and a wonderful grandfather to Darius and Alexander.
DS2 (1830): Alexander Duncan
Over the next few years, Margaret gives birth to another healthy baby, a girl. They. name her Eugenie. The family is thrilled - they feel complete with so many children in their home, even though money has become a little more tight as the children have aged. Margaret begins dressmaking in the family's attic to earn a little extra money, and in 1837, she becomes pregnant again, this time with twins. The birth process is arduous, but DW eventually gives birth to two small babies, a boy and a girl. Margaret never fully recovers from the birth and passes away three months later. The family is devastated and ten-year-old Darius leaves school to begin peddling newspapers on the street.
DD1 (1832): Eugenie Elizabeth
DD2 (1838): Alice Euphemia
DS3 (1838): Leonidas George
Darius is, at 14, apprenticed to his father and begins work as a blacksmith. The other children attend school. In 1852, Darius marries his childhood friend, Mary Ann. He now co-owns the blacksmith shop with his father, who is getting older and finds it harder to work. Darius and Mary Ann have only one child together: a brilliant and evidently intelligent girl named Marguerite. Darius sends his daughter to a special girls' boarding school to learn mathematics and science. She thrives there and develops an interest in chemistry. When she graduates, she begins reading scientific journals and is apprenticed to a scientist and professor in Cologne, Germany, who is willing to allow her to use his laboratory. She becomes heavily influential in the sphere of science, despite her gender, publishing most of her findings under her professor's name.
