My name is Sybil Crawley; I am 16 years of age. I have dark brown hair and blue eyes. This is a record of my life through love, battle and loss. My father Robert Crawley is the Earl of Downton, so I am known as Lady Sybil Crawley. I live in a grand house, with my father, mother, and three sisters; 2 older. As well as our family, there are the servants downstairs who take care of us as well as our home.
I am expected to marry at the age of age 18, to a Lord or Duke. However all the men my parents have arranged for me to meet are not very... well let us just say they are not handsome, so to speak. Of course they are wealthy and have high titles, but I want more from life than just that, I want to marry someone who can make me laugh someone like Tom...
