Lord Albert Edward Howard, Duke of Kent Territory

The Great-Grandparents

Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR and Lady Patricia Eugenie Stuart have five children together, Lord Charles Andrew Howard III, born in 2230, Lady Patricia Charlene Howard, born in 2235, Lord Patrick William Howard II, born in 2240, Lady Charlotte Augusta Howard in 2245, and Lord Andrew Charles Howard in 2250 and finally with his second wife, Lady Sarah a daughter, Lady Frederica Wilhelmina in 2276.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR like his father before starts to plan out his oldest children's marriage with some of the most prominent families on both Star-Base 10 and Star Base 12.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR expects his eldest son to succeed him in time, but his late father rewrites the succession to the Dukedom of Norfolk and Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior states that Norfolk will go to his first grandson who gives him his very first great-grandchild and he doesn't care what the gender is but it must come through his eldest son and one of his sons, as he has excluded Lord Richard Edward Howard and Lord Edwin William Howard is excluded by having a daughter rather than a son.

When Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior died in 2240, his eldest grandson, Lord Charles Andrew Howard III was ten years old, Lady Patricia Charlene was only five and Lord Patrick William II was only three months old.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR looks at Lady Patricia Eugenie " We go through all this trouble to give that sorry bastard his first grandson and he does this to me that our eldest son will only get the Dukedom if he gives his damn grandfather his first great-grandchild. The boy is only 10 years old and I have been looking but there is not one worthy daughter out there yet."

"I have only managed to find a husband for our daughter, Lord Ralph Neville, The Earl of Westmoreland Territory has a son, Lord Ralph Neville on Star Base 10." Lord Charles Andrew JR states, "It is a worthy match and our daughter will become a Countess."

"Lord Patrick William is far too young to marry as is Lady Charlotte Augusta and Lord Andrew Charles." Lord Charles Andrew JR states.

"I will keep looking for a worthy bride on Star-Base 12. There are small territories within the larger territories." Lord Charles Andrew JR states.

Finally, Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR finds a worthy match for his eldest son, Lord Charles Andrew Howard III with Lord Edward Victor Stanhope's daughter, Lady Victoria Charlotte Stanhope and she comes with a good dowry.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard III is married to Lady Victoria Charlotte Stanhope in June of 2251 and Lord Charles Andrew JR starts to hope that they will have a child so his eldest son will inherit the title.

Nothing happens and Lady Victoria Charlotte doesn't show any signs of pregnancy, and in 2253, Lady Patricia Charlene Howard marries Lord Ralph Neville and they have a son, Lord Ralph Neville III in 2255, but he is excluded he doesn't come through the male line of Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior and in 2258, Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR marries his second son, Lord Patrick William Howard II to Lady Paulina Charlene Stafford and at the same time contracts that Lord David Frederick Stafford' son is betrothed to his daughter, Lady Charlotte Augusta Howard in 2262.

Years pass by for Lord Charles Andrew Howard III and Lord Patrick William Howard II and neither have any children and Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR turns towards his youngest son, Lord Andrew Charles to marry, but Lord Andrew Charles tells his father " I won't marry a woman that i don't love and I won't consummate my marriage with her."

"Lord Patrick William Howard line will discontinue unless I am allowed to marry. The Lord Richard Edward family has been excluded as has Lord Edwin William side of the family and Lord Frederick William II side of the family and Lady Sophia Charlotte's family and Lord Andrew Charles who I was named after isn't even." Lord Andrew Charles states " I promise to give my grandfather his damn great-grandchild but with the right woman."

"Find her, Lord Andrew Charles and marry her and give me my heir or heiress. My damn father didn't care what his first grandchild was." Lord Charles Andrew JR states.

"I have been looking for her, but she won't be from here but I know who she is when she arrives." Lord Andrew Charles tells his father.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR continues to wait as the succession lays on the balance of extinction all because of his father.
