DD: Phoebe Lydia Lacey [2]Simon and Deborah with Kitty, Owen, and PhoebeSimon and Deborah Lacey live in Middlesbrough, England, in 1862. They've been married for five years, and have three children: Kitty, Owen, and their newest, little Phoebe. Simon works in a steel factory, and Deborah does laundry for wealthier families. Simon works long hours at the factories. As a skilled metalworker, he gets paid better than most factory workers, but the Laceys are still at the bottom of the middle class. Nevertheless, they are as happy as one in their situation can be. Simon is a shy, quiet man who doesn't speak much outside of his home. Deborah, on the other hand, is a chatterbox who's never met a stranger. Kitty takes after her mother, curious and talkative. Owen is a sickly child, and can't go out and play much. He has a big imagination, though, often creating intricate stories with his sisters and his toys. Phoebe is a rambunctious child who likes to run around and keeps her mother very busy.
