The Greenbriars

The Greenbriars are a family from Portland, Oregon. The members are Terrence and Janice, and their two children, Kaitlin, also known as Katie, and Samantha, known as Sam. In the summer of 1994, they moved into the house of Terrance's uncle, Oscar Masan, after it was bequeathed after the latter's death. During this time, Katie was overseas in Europe for a holiday.

History
Terrence spent a lot of time at his uncle's house, especially over the holidays. Despite living in Washington, he frequently made the two-hour journey to visit family. Sometime after Thanksgiving, 1963, he stopped visiting. Ten years later, Oscar sent a letter to Mary, Terrence's mother and his sister, apologising for some unnamed sin he had committed against his family. It was the last piece of correspondence he would have with his family until his death, twenty years later.

Terrence and Janice Greenbriar were married on July 20, 1971. They were married in Seattle, Washington. This completed Janice's naturalization process, as she was born in Canada. A little over a year later, their first daughter, Kaitlin, was born. . Three years later, their second daughter, Samantha, was born.
