Re: bananarama's KUY Congrats - Sign-ups and Round 1
LN: Bishop
DH: Robert Edward (1878 - 22)
DW: Margaret Rose "Meg" [nee Yale] (1881 - 19)
DS: Robert Edward Jr "Robbie" (1990 - nb)Location: London, EnglandThe Bishop and Yale families are both families from high society in London, and as such, Robert & Meg had been acquainted for a long time through their parents who were close friends. When Meg reached the age of 16, Robert was encouraged to begin to court her, as both sets of parents thought that they would be a wonderful match. Meg resisted at first as Robert had quite the reputation for being a bit of a womaniser, but he eventually charmed her into agreeing to a date. Robert & Meg had always been friendly with each other, but their relationship blossomed quickly. After a few weeks, Robert admitted to Meg that all the other girls he'd seen were just floozies to waste time with until Meg had come of age, as he had always known that Meg would be the woman he would marry one day.Robert proposed to Meg at her 18th birthday celebrations, and they married 6 months later. They had been married for about 6 months when they decided to start their family, and conceived almost immediately. Robert Edward Bishop Jr. arrived 9 months later and is the delight of both the Bishop & Yale families.
