<3 <3 <3

hard for me to follow how exactly everyone’s related without the visual aid of a family tree, but does that stop me loving this? ABSOLUTELY NOT, KEEP IT COMING

I replied:

Thank you! Here are charts and a guide:






The characters in red are the ones who are still alive c. 1796: Lady Georgiana Carteret née Howard (mother of Darcy’s father); Georgiana Harcourt née Carteret (half-sister of Darcy’s father); Philadelphia, Lady Auckland née Carteret (half-sister of Darcy’s father); Cassandra, Lavinia, and Alexander Darcy (first cousins of Darcy’s father); George, Lord Carrington (Darcy’s second cousin), and Sarah, Lady Carrington, née Sarah Pratt; Beatrice Howard (Darcy’s second cousin); James, Lord Auckland; Rev. Thomas Stanley; Clarissa Stanley (Darcy’s half-cousins); Darcy and Georgiana.

[ETA 3/12/2024: there is a small mistake here; Lord Carrington's father, the duke, is still alive in 1796 and should also be outlined in red (otherwise Carrington would be the duke). In my headcanon, Carrington has become the canonical duke involved in the Ecclesford theatricals by the time of Mansfield Park. But it would not have happened yet during P&P.]
