The Mayfair Family Tree--More New Stuff

As I've said, one thing I have noticed is a lot of interest in the Mayfair family tree.  I can certainly understand why.  With what we now know about what our DNA can tell us about who our relatives, our ancestors were and are, it's certain to have raised all kinds of new questions about how our DNA tells us these things.  Certainly, not everyone has gotten a pleasant shock from DNA test results.  We've learned things about our genetics that has caused us to approach our family trees in new ways, forced us to ask difficult questions.

I've been doing a lot with the family tree of the Mayfair Witches.  We know a lot about genetics today than we did when the books were first published, beginning with The Witching Hour in 1990.  I have used my family tree maker software to not only build the tree, but also to calculate relatedness. 

As you can imagine, the software has its own names for relatives and degrees of relatedness.  On a tree like the Mayfair tree, this can be problematic because of how many inward twists and loops the tree makes between the same individuals.  Like this:

For Michael Curry and Rowan Mayfair, I have hourglass and extended family charts on their individual relatedness pages, one that has Lionel Mayfair as Antha Mayfair's father, and one with Cortland Mayfair as Antha Mayfair's father.

The software also wants to tell me about Morrigan Mayfair, Michael Curry's Taltos daughter with Mona Mayfair.  And Mona Mayfair is described as a "twentyfold" Mayfair.  I am certainly going to see if I can get the software to tell me more about this twentyfold thing, but I thought I'd also include Morrigan Mayfair (on her own page).

Until then, I've begun the page on Mona Mayfair, which is by no means complete...

If You Have Not Seen the First Street Family Gallery...

...you may see it here on the main website: First Street Family Gallery

New Orleans Architecture

I've updated the houses that appear on Italianate Greek Revival in New Orleans Gallery.  There are a variety of houses in New Orleans that are similar to the Brevard-Rice house.  Hopefully, I'll be able to add more soon...

Yer Hostess Is In A Bit of Shock At the Moment...

So, I was putting a new little section for the AMC series filming locations on the Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches on AMC page, which now has a whopping two locations in New Orleans...

And I stumbled on something in the article on Distractify that I was looking at that lists the series filming locations.

The Family Tree Does Not Fork. Much.

I have updated the Mayfair Relatedness page.  A lot.

New! Mayfair Witches From Page to Screen

As I have been going through reviews and posts on social media like YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, the reviews of the show, Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches, seem to be mixed.  One thing I was surprised at and certainly not alone with is that the characters of Michael Curry and Aaron Lightner are...well, just not there.  

Something New on Mayfair TV

A new page has been added to the Parlor!

I've finally begun the process of comparing the books to the AMC series.  Of course, the site had to be reorganized--AGAIN--but hopefully, fans of the AMC series will enjoy the new sections and page.

Some Updates Here and There...

There have been even more changes, updates, and things to mention on Come Into My Parlor.  If you look on some of the pages of the site, such as Blackwood Farm and Blood Canticle, you'll see a different divider on it.

Or two.
