The Forbidden Love Affair

The Girl in Valley - Taken from The Secret Garden

Lord Matthew Colin Craven's paternal grandmother was Lady Lilias Craven nee Lennox.  She was born in Yorkshire, England before World War IIII broke out on Planet Earth.

Lady Lilias Lennox was raised by good gentry people, but they were not wealthy, nor did Lord Lennox come with a title or property. He owned a small country manor in Thwaite Village in Yorkshire, England.

Lady Lennox was a seamstress and she made dresses for the ladies in Thwaite Village. 

Lord John Lennox and Lady Lilias Lennox had only two children, Colonel Harry Albert Lennox and Lady Lilias Ann Lennox.

Colonel Harry Albert Lennox was born in 2120 and Lady Lilias was born in 2125 during the reign of King William V of England and Queen Katherine.

Colonel Harry Albert Lennox met a young aristocratic woman, Lady Rose Gordon and they started to court each other in 2138 and in they married in 2140 and Colonel Lennox was sent to India and during that time Lady Rose became pregnant with their only child that was born in 2145 and she was named Lady Mary Lennox.

When Lady Lilias Lennox was one day out in her garden in 2142, she met a wealthy gentleman name Lord Archibald Craven of Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire, England and they start to court each other until 2143 and in 2145 she gives birth to a son, Lord Colin Craven, but Lady Lily doesn't survive the childbirth and she dies two days later.

In the year of 2165, at the age of ten years old Lady Mary Lennox Travels from India to England after her father and mother die from a cholera outbreak and she is sent to live with her uncle, Lord Archibald Craven, still grieving for his dear late wife, Lady Lily.

Lady Mary was left on her own with the only the help of a maid, Martha Sowerby and one day while she was walking around Misselthwaite Manor she found a key on the ground and a robin led her to a locked-up garden.

Martha told her that the garden once belonged to her late Aunt Lily, and a tragedy has taken place before she had come to live with them.

The tragedy was that she died shortly after giving birth to Lady Mary's first cousin, Lord Colin Craven, but Dr. Neil Craven was the younger brother of Lord Archibald Craven, and he was a very jealous man of his older brother who inherited Misselthwaite Manor from their father. 

Neil Craven went to medical school, and he was the one that assisted with the childbirth to his nephew, Lord Colin along with Mrs. Sowerby who knew about midwifery. 

Lady Lily' s labor was brought on by a fall from a tree out in her garden and her labor was premature and long and she died due to complications after the birth.

Lord Archibald Craven hired a nurse to take care of his son, Lord Colin and could no longer bear to live at Misselthwaite Manor in the spring and summer months and would retreat to Switzerland but return in the autumn and spend autumn and winter at Misselthwaite Manor and occasionally looking in on his son while sleep and when he was asleep.

Lord Craven would unveil a picture of Lady Lily that was hidden behind a velvet curtain, and he thought that Lord Colin was asleep, but he wasn't and when his father left the room he would start to cry.

One day while Lady Mary was exploring Misselthwaite Manor she came across her cousin, Lord Colin screaming at the of his lungs and she told him " I can out scream you." and he was shocked, but the two first cousins bonded as they were both neglected children and they became inseparable until Lord Archibald separated them and sent them to private schools.

Lord Colin and Lady Mary married in 2200 and they had two children, Lord Matthew Colin Craven and Lady Lillas Rose Craven and it   one of Lord Matthew Colin Craven's great-grandsons that traveled to Star Base 12 with Lord Patrick William Howard.

Lord Patrick William Howard was a direct descendant of Sir John Howard and Lady Joan of Cornwall and through their great-great-great-grandson, Sir Robert Howard of Tendering who married Lady Margaret de Mowbray who was the second daughter of Lord Thomas de Mowbray, Duke of Norfolk of the first creation and through his mother, King Edward I of England and his second queen, Princess Margaret of France who blessed the old King with  a fine son, Lord Thomas of Brotherton who was blessed with a daughter, Lady Margaret who married Sr. Seagrave and they had a daughter, Lady Elizabeth Seagrave and she married Lord John De Mowbray who has Lord Thomas de Mowbray, 1st Duke of Norfolk of the first creation and he married and they had a daughter, Lady Margaret De Mowbray that married Sir Robert Howard of Tendering and she had a fine son, Lord John Howard, the first Howard Duke of Norfolk who was the next in line through his mother to inherit the Dukedom of Norfolk from his grandfather.

Lady Margaret' sister only had daughters from her marriage and because Lord John was loyal to King Edward IV and King Richard III it was King Richard III who bestowed the Dukedom of Norfolk on Lord John Howard in 1483.

Two years later, on Bosworth field both Lord Walter Devereux, Lord John Howard and King Richard III were killed by Henry Tudor, but Karma has a way to deal with people of this nature - Henry VII son, King Henry VIII fell for Lord John Howard's great-granddaughter, Lady Anne Boleyn and Henry Tudor got the best monarch that England ever saw, and her name was Queen Elizabeth the First of England.

Queen Elizabeth the I of England was the great-great-granddaughter of Lord John Howard 1st Duke of Norfolk through his son, Lord Thomas Howard and his eldest daughter Lady Elizabeth Howard.

Queen Elizabeth I was very generous to her mother's side of the family that included the Howard's, The Carey's, and The Devereux, and The Knollys's. "  

Like every family they have skeletons in their closest, starting with Lord Henry Howard who was executed for treason against King Henry VIII and his son, Lord Thomas Howard 4th Duke of Norfolk executed for high treason against Queen Elizabeth 1 of England.

"The Howard's didn't regain the Dukedom of Norfolk back after King Charles II became king of England in 1660 and its Lord Thomas Howard fourth Duke of Norfolk great-great grandson that became the fifth Duke of Norfolk and he was followed by his brother.

Lord Patrick William Howard fled Pre-World War Three in 2153 with Lord Albert Matthew Craven and with some other families they resettled on Star Base 12, and it is Lord Colin and Lady Mary's great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter that marries Lord Jerome Alexander Stuart and their daughter that married Lord Andrew Charles Howard V.
