(Round 5 Scenario – 1920)
Oliver and Hazel have welcomed their last daughter, Ruby. Hazel feels she can no long bear children, and the local doctors have told her it may cost her her life if she has further offspring. They have now settled into having grandchildren, with their eldest son, Fredrick, marrying in 1916 to Laura. After a year of marriage, they welcomed twin girls (Evelyn and Virginia), in 1918. A year later in 1919, they welcomed their second set of twin girls, Irene and Elenor. Unfortunately, Laura passed away in childbirth. Samuel and David also married, with Samuel recently giving birth to his first son, Earl. Clarence, George and Marie are set to hopefully marry soon.
(Round 4 Scenario – 1915)
Oliver and Hazel have been continuing with life as usual. Thomas was born 3 years after the twins, and Lucille born 3 years subsequent to that. News travelled of a war and a ship sinking, both killing hundreds of people. Luckily Oliver and Hazel were no where near neither events.
(Round 3 Scenario – 1910)
Oliver and Hazel welcomed their first daughter, Marie, 3 years after the birth of their previous set of twin boys. 2 years later, they welcomed yet *another* set of twin boys, Will and Arthur. Their lives are hectic, but they manage, and in fact are enjoying their years with their young children. Luck was once again on their side when a Typhoid epidemic spread across the small town, and all their children survived. They thanked God that their strong blood was passed to their children; meanwhile, they mourned the loss of many people in the town.
(Round 2 Scenario - 1905)
Oliver and Hazel are living happily with their 5 children, Freddy, Sammy, David, Clarence and George. They were surprised by the birth of 2 sets of twins, but welcomed them all the same. With the inheritance Oliver and Hazel received from their families, they have more than enough money to live comfortably for a long time. They both sold their family estates, and purchased a large house and land about 2 hours away from where they previously lived (they couldn’t stand being in an area where so much death and sadness had overcome their lives). They are looking forward to spending many more years together, and feel blessed with the fact that neither of them has been stricken with illness, and hope their children inherit the same traits.
(Round 1 Scenario - 1900)
Oliver and Hazel have known each other for about 4 years. Their families date back to the 1600s, however, for about the last 100 years, there has been an awful feud between the families. The reasons for the feud aren’t properly known, each generation was conditioned to hate the other family. Oliver and Hazel were the first to break that pattern, when they first met after they were put in care of a neighbour after their respective families had an untimely death within 6 months of each other.
Oliver’s mother (an only child) died in childbirth with her fourth child, daughter Harriet. Harriet however, died 12 weeks after birth. The second and third born children also suffered in infant death through drowning and being trodden on by a horse (although this occurred 8 years before). Oliver’s father (an only child) died a month after little Harriet, and it is thought they suffered the same illness. This left Oliver to be the only living member of the Milton family at the age of 14.
Meanwhile, Hazel’s family was stricken by a similar illness. First to pass away was her father, followed by one of her younger twin brothers, Harry. Harry’s twin was always the ‘stronger’ twin, so he was only suffering slight effects of the illness; although one day about 3 months after the death of his brother and father, he was walking in the forest in winter, and became lost. His body was found days later when the snow began to melt. Hazel’s mother had been suffering depression and was in a very fragile state; with hearing the news of the death of her other son, she committed suicide. Hazel was then the only living member of the Smith family at the age of 15.
Both Oliver and Hazel were moved to a neighbour’s house within months of each other, and then began their friendship. They married at the age of 16, and their first child was born a year later.
