Mr. Bennet, Mrs. Bennet, and Mr. Gardiner have all passed away since the events of The Gentleman’s Impertinent Daughter. Mrs. Bennet died first, but she lived long enough to see all of her daughters wed and most of her grandchildren born. Mr. Bennet allowed Collins to move into Longbourn after his wife died. After a year or two of haphazard training, Bennet decided to take up his daughter and son-in-law’s offer to stay at Pemberley. He died after Christiane Darcy was born. Mr. Gardiner was the most recent family member to pass away, just before Tommy Darcy was born.

Mr. Philips has retired from his law practice and still lives in Meryton where he claims Mrs. Philips may nag him to death at any moment. Sir William Lucas spends much of his time at Longbourn, he says to advise Collins, but really it is arranged by his wife. After all, Charlotte got the idea from somewhere. He still attends most balls, but no longer dances. Lady Lucas continues to worry about her youngest children who remain at home and do not seem to have an interest in marriage or moving out. Luckily, Maria married an officer friend of Lydia’s husband. Lady Lucas has begrudgingly had to admit that Mrs. Bennet’s daughters were quite adept at finding husbands.

Lady Catherine died many years ago, allowing her daughter to run Rosings as she pleased and marry where she wished. Anne’s marriage to Percival de Bourgh was no love match, but a shrewd arrangement and they have been content nonetheless.
