Maybe someone else has mentioned this -- it's hard for me to believe otherwise -- but to me, the biggest and most critical mystery of all is: who was Ebenezer's wife? Ebenezer was Maggie (Sr)'s father ... so who was her mother?

Remember, Sir Jim is a very close-mouthed soul, so I've no doubt that this is going to be a rather interesting revelation. It seems like it'd be very important, especially considering that it is well-established that magical abilities more often follow the *female* bloodline, rather than the male.

(Someone else entirely?)
