Carrington Barony

[libertyybelle 6187]

Barony of Carrington

Within the blood of family there will be a climax. The current peak of Carrington was the Barony gifted to the kin under the benevolent Imperial Majesty, Peter III. With immense respect for the man named George “Green” Carrington, and for the hard work that the Carrington line has provided for the jewelled city of Helena, it was deemed only fit to bestow such honor upon him and his ilk. Land was also given under the Barony to create a home near the Imperial capital. Hence beginning the building of Carrington Court.

Brief history to the year 1764 

 

-II-

 

The descendants of these merchants found themselves upon the land of Arcas. An errant bastard, styled as Green, claimed the lost Carrington name and founded the modern incarnation of Carrington & Company, alongside his half brother Jasper “Joe” Carrington, with the wayward line of Bruce Rogers soon joining their ranks. Although finding a hostile and rocky welcome in the city of Helena, the Carrington brothers would soon find success in their burgeoning business. Establishing a presence in every major city, Carrington & Company now may be perhaps the most widespread independent mercantile venture upon Arcas. Still, the company expands it reaches into the many settlements of the world and seeks to establish a larger presence within the major cities of Arcas.

 

In 1754, Joe Carrington would be named City Commissioner of Helena, with Red Rogers shortly thereafter assuming the position of City Clerk. Their partnership would usher in the greatly increased development of Helena, solving the housing crisis and creating the largest profits the Empire had ever seen as a result of their sales. In 1756, Green Carrington would marry Mary Philippa d’Arkent, cementing relations between the once contentious families. As the Carringtons assumed greater responsibility in Helena, it was determined to refocus efforts primarily on Helenan operations. 

 

Late 1756 would be heralded by the birth of Mary Lucille (Junior) to Green and Mary. In the later years of 1758, Alpha Carrington, adopted daughter of Green, would be elected Lord Mayor of Helena. In 1759, Green himself would be named Lord Treasurer of Oren. With the Carrington’s prominence in Helena, holding the titles of: Lord Treasurer, Lord Mayor, District Attorney, City Clerk, and City Commissioner, future prospects indeed looked bright for the lowborn family.

 

In 1760, the twins Mary Jane and Mary Vespira Philippa would be born to Green and Mary. In 1761, the Silver Jubilee would be organized by Alpha Carrington, proving to be the largest event in Helenan history. 1762 was marked by the passing of a Carrington stone of myth being gifted to the newly crowned King of Haense, Sigismund II. In 1763, Alpha Carrington would win her second term as Lady Mayor of Helena.  In 1764, Green would be named Baron Carrington.
