THE FILE ON THE MAYFAIR WITCHES

PART TWO: 1837 - 1921

1837

Julian finally asks the fiend Lasher what he really wants from Marguerite and him.  He simply says "What I really want from you all", "That you make me flesh!"

1843

Julian accidentally kills his uncle Augustin.  Meanwhile Augustin's son Tobia's take his part of the family way from the main Mayfair clan to Fontevrault this bitterness between the both last until 1913 and even after that the two family's are still unsteady.  But we'll discuss this later.

1857

Katherine now twenty-seven and Julian now twenty-nine buy property on First Street which is located in the Garden District.  And on a different note this is the house that the Mayfair's still live today. Julian hires the architect Darcy Monohan who draws up the plans and starts to build the house.  During this time Katherine and Darcy fall deeply in love.  Julian being the protective brother and also insanely jealous forbids Katherine from marrying Darcy.  Supposedly Katherine and Darcy pledged their love for each other in a room in the First Street House that had yet no roof.  Katherine threatening to run away with him Julian permits them to marry.  Julian and Katherine become estrange. 

1858

The house was complete and Darcy and Katherine moved into the house.  Katherine holds the first of many balls that the Mayfair family attends.

1859 - 1860

Katherine gives birth to Clay Mayfair, then she gives birth to another three children around (1859 - 1860) all three children died in babyhood. 

1865 - 1871

Katherine gives birth to Vincent Mayfair and another two children that both died in babyhood.  People who knew her said that the losses broke her heart and that she saw this to be a judgment from God.  Katherine once a happy, high-spirited young girl to a different kind of personality and a confused woman.  Unfortunately for Katherine the misfortune that had dogged her since moving into First Street didn't end with the death of five of her children, in 1871 her beloved husband Darcy Monohan dies of Yellow Fever, Katherine who is now totally broken hearted and half mad pleads with Julian to come to her which he does without much argument.  This is the first time that Julian ever set foot in First since it being built in 1858 and took the master bedroom.  With the grief of the deaths of her five children and the demise of Darcy, Katherine tries to commit suicide twice with the aid of poison.  Julian eventually thought it best if Katherine and her children came back to Riverbend.  Where Julian eventually rapes Katherine.

My opinion is that Julian with the help from Lasher but a curse on First Street after Julian did not want Katherine to marry Darcy and I believe this curse stayed on First Street until 1990.

1872

Mary Beth Mayfair is born.  Even though Mary Beth was born 10.5 months after Darcy's death, Katherine proclaims that Mary Beth's father is actually Darcy's. 

Julian bestowed all the love and wealth that he could possible give and the extravagant balls he used to throw for her that could rival in private function in New Orleans.

1875 - 1885

Julian marries Suzette; Suzette gives Julian four children between in a ten year space.

Julian's wife Suzette dies.

1887

Julian takes Mary Beth to New York.

1888 - 1889

First Street becomes apart of the legacy.  Julian takes Mary Beth on an eighteen-month tour of Europe. During the time when Mary Beth and Julian where in Donnelaith, Julian makes progress in discovering the true origin and nature of Lasher who finds out that Lasher lived before hand about thirteen hundred years ago and he went with the name Ashlar.  Also during this time New Orleans Mayfair's discovered via letter that Mary Beth had married a Scottish Mayfair and that she fell pregnant with Belle Mayfair.  When in fact Julian and Mary Beth only visited Edinburgh and visited Donnelaith and that this fictitious Lord Mayfair was just a cover as the true father was actually Julian.  Finally in 1889 Julian, Mary Beth, and Belle return to First Street.  Where Mary Beth started to love to dance, going to parties, and going to the theatre but never really showed any interest in marrying.

1891

Mary Beth awoke with a scream insisting furiously that she had to leave for Riverbend as her grandmother (Marguerite) was near death.  When Marguerite did die Katherine rose from the chair got the Mayfair emerald and placed it upon Mary Beth.

1901

Mary Beth has her successor in Stella Mayfair.  Stella was the favorite of all her children and it seemed Stella was everyone else’s favorite as well, except for Carlotta who despised Stella so much.

1905

Katherine dies at the age of seventy-five.

Stella attends many schools but is expelled from many of them as the other children were frightened of her. Reports say that she could read other students mind and flung people around without touching them and that she would laugh at the nuns if she thought their where telling a lie.

1913 

Julien discovers that Cortland had fathered a daughter and that she was being locked up Uncle Augustin's relatives.  Julian demanded that Evelyn was released and handed over to him.  Their refused and he shouted at the top of his voice "Come now, my Lasher" "Make the way for me!" Lasher did and he took Evelyn out of captors grasp and back to First Street where Carlotta asked Evelyn to repeat the poem she had said.  (Basically Evelyn could see the future and she use to put them into poems):

Not long after Evelyn became apart of the Mayfair family Julien had fathered Laura Lee with Evelyn.

1916
