#the phantomhives

[sebadztian]

This is the Phantomhive family tree, or at least, a small part of it.

Now, for years and years, it has been a tradition in many places, including England, for the father's last name to be passed down to the children.

However, Vincent wasn't named Vincent Ross. He was named after his mother, Claudia Phantomhive. It could've been a title, but this family tree was written in the Reapers book, so that must be his real name. He's a Phantomhive, not a Ross.

I wonder why that is... Could it be that Cedric K Ross, his father, wasn't a noble? That's why their son took Claudia's name? Or maybe, it's because of the Phantomhives special status as the Watchdog? I think this was the most logical explanation. Claudia was a Watchdog, and so her name, title, and role was passed down to Vincent when she passed away.

This image was from the earlier chapters. This image shows the generations of Watchdogs, Ciel, Vincent, and their ancestors. Maybe I'm not seeing it clearly, but the person before Vincent looked like they were wearing a dress? So, I take it that's Claudia Phantomhive.

But then, this line threw me off...

Ciel said that the ring has witnessed his grandfather's death, which is not true because Cedric was his grandfather's and he wasn't a Phantomhive, which means he might not have been the Watchdog. He might not know this, but that doesn't quite make srnse since he must've known his own family's hostory. Maybe not everything, but at least, his own grandparents...

Also, a bonus. Look at Vincent's tree. Vincent & Rachel's (out of frame) branches actually split into two. Another hint of the twins reveal which I've never noticed before? 😲

But the more important question is... Where is Francis?? She's Vincent's sister, but why did Claudia & Cedric's branches only have 1 child? Could it be that this was the family tree for the dead family members? But that doesn't make sense either...
