Spring Valley 2/17/24

 400 Pine St:  After his older brother Charles took over the fishing trade from their father, Garrett Ford decided to become an eggplant farmer.  He's been working his farm for a while now and has just recently married Nora (Jefferson) Ford.  They have a new baby, Tyler, and are expecting their second child.  Nora will eventually become the town healer (when her mother Victoria passes away), but for now she's baking pies and cakes for the general store to bring in extra money.

400 Main St:  Patience (Johnson) Ford's father was the first minister of Spring Valley.  After her father's death, her mother opened the boarding house and Primrose Boutique.  Patience married the newly appointed headmaster of the primary school, Mason Ford.  She discovered she was pregnant immediately following the honeymoon.  Life was good...until the fateful day when a fire started in the parlor.  Mason attempted valiantly to extinguish it, but lost his life in the process.  Patience eventually delivered twins, Ethan and Temperance, and has taken over her late husband's duties temporarily while the town council seeks out a new headmaster.  She's not sure what will become of her now, but life has certainly not turned out the way she expected it to.

Primrose Boarding House (500 Chapel Hill):  Rose (Adams) Johnson is a widow, whose late husband, Elijah, was the first town minister.  They raised four daughters together, Charity, Patience, Joy, and Mercy.  After Elijah died, Rose moved her younger three daughters (Charity was already married) to the Primrose Boarding House where she took a position as the headmistress.  In addition, she opened a small boutique, selling clothing, flowers, pottery, and textiles.  Her daughter Patience recently married as well but, sadly her husband was killed in a fire.  Luckily, Patience survived the blaze and went on to deliver twins.  Joy's intended husband was also killed in a house fire, leaving her without a match.  Her youngest is to be wed in the spring to the innkeeper.  Rose knows she doesn't have much time left, so she's arranged for Joy to take over as headmistress and owner of the boutique.  She wants to do everything she can to make sure her daughters are settled and taken care of before she dies.

Happy Simming!
