They were thick as thieves : They were all related to Lord Frederick William Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk Territory, and one of his four children, and three were his great-grandsons and two were his great-great-grandsons, and they were born during the baby-boom of 2250.

Lord Frederick William Howard was an overachiever, and with his Duchess, Lady Jeannette Virginia before he was even 35 years old he had four children, three sons and one daughter and second son, Lord Charles Andrew Howard was the same as his father, an overachiever and with his Duchess, Lady Alexandra Elizabeth he had three sons and a daughter, and it was his oldest son, Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR that trumpet both his father and grandfather with his Duchess, Lady Patricia Eugenie that had five children, three sons and two daughter, and with his second Duchess, Lady Sarah another daughter.

Lord Frederick William Howard eldest son, Lord Frederick William Howard The Second managed to give his father one grandson, Lady Sophia Charlotte managed to give her father one grandson, and Lord Andrew Charles managed to give his father one grandson.

Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior other children managed to give their father, Lord Richard Edward Howard Senior, one grandson, Lord Edwin William Howard gave him no son, but he provided his father with his first female line great-grandson, Lord David William Beck, but Lord Charles Andrew Howard Junior trumpet them all by his father, Lord Charles Andrew Howard The Third, Lord Patrick William Howard The Second and Lord Andrew Charles Howard.

All of Lord Frederick William's male great-grandsons, and great-great-grandsons were defiant, rebellious and they opposed pre-arranged marriages that dated from so far back that the practice should have been abolished.

None refused to marry if they couldn't marry for love, and the leader of the pack was none other than Lord Andrew Charles Howard.
