      Her "deductions" are terribly dull. These people are given a rare glimpse into the lives of their ancestors, and they ruin it by being unable to set aside their modern sensibilities for a few minutes.

    And no one is saying what a dush James Rose was to the mother of his daughter! We're not to malign James's good name by saying he possible took advantage of his maid servant! It's simply they had an affair. The baby was born, but the father didn't behave like a gentleman. He chose to keep up appearances by living a lie! He most probably knew about his daughter's condition all along! When it came to a head and the family was going to the poor house, he saved the youngest because she was the most convenient and could be sheltered under the radar while his own daughters would never be put into service! King Edward VIII treated the bed chamber maid with more reverence! I have no respect for him at all!

    1) It shows the curse of being born illegitimate 2) James was probably not as wealthy as you think. He did what he could given the confines of the 'system'. But he and his sister were probably just forking out a living as well.

      Nobody is asking for anything to be done for them. Just want to know their stories and understand their lives a bit more. Epigenetics also suggests that a person's traumas change their DNA, and those changes are passed down for up to 7 generations, so really you're learning a little something about your own building blocks when you find out about the experiences of your ancestors.
