Joshua did behave himself whilst he was married to Grace. He put all his energy into building Nampara for her, and she must have been the love of his life. What a pity she died so young. I have always wanted to know more about her and also Claude Anthony.
One of the reasons why a prequel of the first Poldark story would have been so good. I often wonder how Joshua met Grace. Was he faithful while married to her, or did she put up with infidelities, knowing they mattered little to him.
Ross's mother, and also the namesake for one of his mines. She died when Ross was very young, he had few memories of her but the ones he did have were good ones. She must have been a very good mother. Demellza knew that the way to get Ross's attention was to wear one of his mother's dresses.
