LN: Howard
DH: William Henry (22)
DW: Marie-Elisabeth (nee Beauchamp) (16)
Rank: Lord and Lady HowardLord William Henry Howard is an english Lord, who fled to Bial to avoid persecution, having displeased King George II. During his flight to Bial he spent some months in France and whilst there met Marie-Elisabeth much rumoured to be the illegitimate daughter of the French King. Though this has never been properly acknowledged by the king, Marie was raised alongside the Kings own children, after her mother died in childbirth.
Now married the couple are living in Bial, in moderate wealth thanks to the dowry Marie-Elisabeth had provided for her from a mysterious source (could the King of France seen that she was well provided for?)

DH: William Henry (22)
DW: Marie-Elisabeth (nee Beauchamp) (16)
DD: Lady Louisa Charlotte Adelaide (NB)
Rank: Lord and Lady HowardAt the tender age of just 16 Marie-Elisabeth presented her husband William with a daughter. Although upset that the child hadn't been a boy, William was consoled by the knowledge that Marie was still young enough to bear him many more children and among them there would undoubtably be sons and the child had been born healthy. And anyway how could he possibly be angry with Marie, she was so beautiful and charming with an innocence he couldn't describe. She enchanted him. Her skin was as white as snow and she had the prettiest rosebud lips, her eyes were the colour of glittering emeralds. She had passed on her pale skin and pretty rosebud lips to his daughter too, though the child had Blue eyes, but of course he knew most newborn babies had Blue eyes and they could change colour. William allowed Marie to name their newborn daughter and she named the little girl Louisa Charlotte Adelaide, after Louis the king of France, Prince Charles whom she had been raised with in the Royal Household (she had always been closest to Charles) and the new Dauphine Adelheid respectively.
Marie-Elisabeth felt very sympathetic towards the new Dauphine Adelheid, to have been forced into marriage must be a most terrible ordeal and to Louis.
