REPUTATION AND HISTORIC INFO | The Belanger family is well known to be good doers and firm believers in the Mormon Religion. Their family dates back to a small line of wizards who were believed to be practicing in the Dark Arts but have since squashed most traces of magic within the family line by marrying into muggle families until the magical genes were so diluted they believed it would never surface again. While they have a face of goodness, the Belanger family has been known to shun their own blood should they deviate from the beliefs and practices of the family. |

[PTab=Aldy]
Aldy Belanger, born Aug 21, married his wife Claire Marie Levac whom he met at the Mormon Church and believed would make an excellent wife. It was not necessarily a marriage for love as much a marriage for convenience but they were happy for the most part of their lives together. Muggles, Aldy and Claire were both born and raised in Nottingham and their they remained to raise their three children.

[PTab=Muary]
Muary is actually the elder brother of Aldy, but the two are not on speaking terms and Muary is not on speaking terms with his muggle parents either after marrying a witch, Edith Reed. The family has been split ever since with Muary taking ownership of all the Belanger properties in Sherwood Forest. Muary and Edith had two sons together.

[PTab=Burke]
Burke Belanger is a proud muggle, a proud father and a proud man in general. He's a believer in protecting those less fortunately and in fact met his wife by protecting his younger brother Isaac from being forced to live a life filled with lies when their parents found out he was a homosexual. Burke was agreeable to filling the void Izzie left when their parents wished him to marry Rhea Williams - he had no idea he was about to meet the love of his life. Burke and Rhea remained in Nottingham with Burke eventually taking over as Sheriff. They had five daughters.

Ava is the youngest of Burke's children and the one who ran away from home. She got pregnant accidentally and when her parents slammed down the gauntlet she took off to London; pregnant and unwed.

[PTab=More]
For more information on the family, please see this post:
Belanger Family Page - note that the ages are off on some of the characters listed.
The only thing not negotiable about this family are the character's middle names. Each member of the family is named after a Disney character and I will not change that. It's part of what makes the family unique.
Aldy and Claire do not believe in magic and are not accepting of the LGBT community.
Burke and Rhea are extremely religious and don't believe in magic. There was a huge struggle when their daughters showed signs of Magical abilities and a refusal to send them to Hogwarts at first. Life in Burke and Rhea's household is very strict and Hogwarts is the only freedom the girls have against the iron fist of religion at home. They are hardcore Mormons. No boys allowed in the family home. Male friends have to remain a secret from their parents. Wands are confiscated when they are home for holidays. Burke is the Sheriff of Nottingham
Izzie is a flamboyant homosexual who runs a flower shop.
Ava is a single mother. Nathan was an accident and Jasper was artificial insemination.
The members of Muary's side are more accepting of magic and less accepting of their non-magical relatives. Muary's side runs the Sherwood Forest Provincial Park.
