The patriarch and matriarch of the Watts family, Charlie and Delilah, 72 and 70 respectively.
Charlie skyrocketed his family into financial success in the 1790s. He was an incredibly hard worker in order to provide for them, but sadly, that meant their boys didn't see their dad, barely knew the man.
Their three sons: Arthur, Marshall and Joshua. They had all 3 children in a range of 4 years from the middle to late 1790s.
Arthur (51) respected his father deeply despite not knowing him. He joined the British Army and fought in the Nepoleonic Wars before owning his own factories later in life. His mother detected something sinister in her oldest child, but her concerns were not taken seriously.
Marshall (49) decided he wanted to do good for his community and became a tutor, focused on educating upper-class children, boys, and girls alike. He grew extremely tired of his elder brother. He appeared to take everything he wanted from him. Including the woman he was courting.
Joshua (47) studied to become a doctor at a young age and got derailed ever so slightly when he met the absolute love of his life, marrying extremely young and beginning a family. He was an incredible doctor well known for his remedies. That was until his wife passed away after childbirth..

#Uncool500 - the big list (part 1)
Remember the #Uncool50 music biography I did in October and November? A lot of other people did it as well, and contest sponsor @
[email protected] has compiled a full #Uncool500 from our nominations.
Each nomination was worth 10 points, but we could each nominate four singles for 11 points, and one song for 12 points. ("Since yesterday" was my 12-pointer, the 11s went to "Constant craving", "You oughta know", "The middle", "Bulletproof".)
Ties are broken in a lot of ways. It's all inspired by "This is Uncool", a handbook of great singles from the last quarter of the 20th century. Anything in that book gravitated to the top of the tie; anything from this century followed, and songs from the 20th century and not in the book came further down.
@nonoxcol decided to use the "split vote quotient", acts that had a lot of songs nominated once or twice went ahead of acts with just the one big hit. Where a player had nominated the same act three or more times, the singles they'd nominated got relegated to the bottom of the tie - this happened to Duran Duran a lot.
Finally, @nonoxcol used editorial discretion to freshen up the 20 points section - 55 of about 350 singles were selected to represent decades other than the 1980s, and genres other than indie-rock. As I feared in my index post provocation, the largest minority on Music Twitter tends to be male, pale, and - if not stale - then certainly stuffy.
This post covers positions 500 to 227, songs qualifying on no more than three nominations. Positions 226 to 109 and 108 to 1 are in other posts.
