DH: Stephen Graham (21)
DW: Margaret Katherine "Maggie" (20)
DS: Quentin Graham
Stephen and Maggie have known each other for five years now. Last year, Stephen asked for Maggie's hand in marriage. Now, one year later, they have welcomed a little boy--Quentin Graham. Maggie loves being a mother, especially since that is all she's wanted to be since she was fifteen. Stephen works in a clothing/textile factory. He'd rather be doing outside work, but the factory job is steady and it pays the bills, which is what the family needs right now--especially with a new baby. Stephen and Maggie are elated to begin their family, and they can't wait to add some brothers and sisters for Quentin to play with.
DH: Aaron Jay (17)
DW: Adriana Lolita (15)
DD/DD: Alice Bernardine and Aliena Cassandra
What a year, thinking about our move to the US and the birth of our twin girls, I am now realising just how much responsibility Aaron & I have now. I surely hope moving away from our parents wasn't a mistake.

Ah, well, the last year has been hectic. Fred and I were married in December of last year, and this September 7 I bore our dear Horatio. He takes after the both of us; he has his father's red hair and both of our grey eyes. He is such an adorable baby, always laughing. We have high hopes for him...

DH: Andrew James Tate [1880-]
DW: Georgia Cordelia [Beckham] Tate [1882-]
DS/DD/DS: Benjy Marcel & Emilia Viola & Henry Charles [1902-]
Georgie Beckham was an innkeeper's daughter in Yorkshire when Andrew Tate, a blacksmith, first came in to stay a spell. He was quickly enchanted by her, and, living only a few towns over, he made a point of visiting the inn as much as possible. Eventually, he asked for her hand in marriage. She agreed, and they settled above Andrew's shop in Meryton. While they thought that they were only going to have one child, lo and behold, out came three two years after marriage. The birth severely weakened Georgia, and she is in no condition to do anything as of present.
