Timeline Oddities

I finally wrote up a proper timeline for "The Solicitor's Ward." Mostly, I wanted firm birth dates for all the kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. (Not that this will ever really become important story-wise, but I like to have it. It makes me feel organized.) I think it may need some tweaking, though. I specified in an earlier story (So Long and Goodnight, specifically) that Victor dies in his early 80s, having lived to see Chester's first grandchild born, but dying before Lorina's son Michael gets married. This does some interestingly weird things to the current selection of great-grandkids -- Daniel, the oldest of them, ends up a full five years older than his next sibling, Valerie. It also means Michael gets married a lot later in life than any of the other people in this family. And poor Susan has to wait 11 years to have her first kid with Patrick! I think that's the bit I'm going to focus on changing -- the story only specifies that Victor missed out on seeing CHESTER'S second grandchild. I might as well let him see another great-grandbaby. Not sure what I can do for the others, though. . . . Eh, not like anything's really set in stone.
Yes, I'm rambling, but there ain't much else to talk about. *shrug*
