Older men often married younger women! I was honestly a bit surprised by all the young men~. Average marrying age for women I'm this time period is 20-22 by the by. Edit:. Side note. My plan is to make a second character based off the movie quote "And I'm sure he kept a very good sort of shop before his elevation to Knighthood.". Should he be a man or a woman in disguise? If a woman, hella gay. Lastly, firearms - are they a thing in this world? We would have had muskets and such during Regency.
