History[]
The Winslow Family actually harks back centuries to the trade merchant Francis Winslow, the bastard son of shopkeeper's daughter and the younger son of a local lord. The noble family secretly gave Francis' mother a monthly stipend on the condition that she never reveal her son's true father to anyone, including Francis. At his maternal grandfather's insistence, half of the stipend was used for Francis' education, while the rest was given to him when he set out to create a life of his own.
When Francis turned 18, his paternal family "anonymously" bought him a naval commission. After serving several years in service to his country, Francis retired and started a simple trade business to give himself an excuse to visit his mistress in Flanders. Since then, most of the Winslows have been in the business of trading goods. There have been monks, alchemists, and other tradesmen, but something in the Winslow blood enjoys the work of merchant traders. Though most are noticeably more loyal to their spouses than their esteemed forebearer.
The Exalted House of Winslow was established in 1467.
