Re: Rachel Shaina's Keep Up Yourself Congrats Round 3
Surname: North
DH: Robert Andrew (31)
DW: Elisabeth Anne (Astor) "Lisbeth" (29)
DS: Robert Andrew Jr. "Bobby" (b. 1900)(10)
DS: Edward Stephen (b. 1905)(5)
DS: Charles Michael "Charlie" (b. 1906)(4)
DD: Mary Rosalind (b. 1909)(1)It is 1910. The North family has been getting on pretty well in life. In 1906, the family moved to Decatur, Illinois, where Robert opened up a branch of the law firm he had worked for in Philadelphia. Two months after moving to Illinois, Lisbeth gave birth to the couple's third son, Charles Michael. Robert's law firm was doing well and getting a lot of business. He had a house built for the family--a two story brick structure with twelve rooms. Lisbeth really likes the house, and she enjoys giving parties there since her extravagant home is the talk of the city. Three years went by very quickly, and the family has really settled in to Decatur. The pace of life is a little slower than that of Philadelphia, but not by much. In 1909, Lisbeth gave birth to their fourth child--a little girl! They named her Mary Rosalind North. Her brothers adore having a sister to dote on, and Mary, four months old, seems to enjoy the attention.
