John David Crawford II | 67 | Vietnam Veteran | Retired Mechanic from Gorman’s Auto Shop | FC: Pierce Brosnan

John David Crawford II was born in 1952 in Beaumont, Tennessee to a farmer (John David Crawford) and his wife (Sally Crawford). He was the middle child of twelve kids, one for each of Jesus’ disciples. They lived mostly in poverty, their only income coming from the milk and meat that their father sold to the local convenience store. At eighteen, John David II had been drafted into the military and shipped off to Vietnam. When he returned at 22, he met the love of his life, Suzannah Crawford. They married after only knowing each other for about four months, and not long after they had their first child, John David III. He raised his kids with discipline and tough love, so that they would know that the world isn’t going to feed you on a silver platter. Not that he had much money to spoil his children with anyways. Though he still suffers from PTSD, you can often find him sitting around the living room with all his grandkids surrounding him, the youngest on his lap, and telling the stories from when he was abroad. 

Suzannah Crawford | 63 | Server at the Junkyard Diner | FC: Madeleine Stowe

Suzannah Duff was born in 1956 in Beaumont, Tennessee to a mechanic (Bobby Ray Duff) and a school teacher (Margo Duff). She was the oldest of three. When she was fourteen years old, her father passed away in a car accident and the Duffs were left with little money to support the family. Suzannah dropped out of school and got a job by lying about her age in order to help support her mother. When she was eighteen, she met a boy who had just come back from the war, John David II, and fell in love. They were married and pregnant within months of meeting. Suzannah has worked her whole life as a server at the Junkyard Diner and plans to work there for a few more years before retiring. She has always been a kind and nurturing mother, but made sure to emphasize the importance of religion and believing in Jesus to her kids. 

John David Crawford III | 44 | Police Lieutenant at Beaumont Sheriff Department | FC: Bradley Cooper

John David Crawford III was born in 1975 in Beaumont, Tennessee. He was the first child of John David II and Suzannah and therefore had been the most spoiled (until his other siblings arrived). Because he was the oldest, his father had always been a little tougher on him. He was to be straight edged, responsible, and act as a third parent if there wasn’t another one around. His high school grades were mediocre, and though he could have attended college, he chose instead to join the police department in Beaumont. At twenty-one, he met his now-wife Anna-Lee at a gala thrown by the police department. She was one of the sisters of the policemen, and John David II had to endure a lot of flack for asking her out. They have now been married for twenty-one years and have three kids: John David IIII (18), Willie Ray (15) and Carolina (11). 

Mason Crawford | 40 |  Mechanic at Gorman’s Auto Shop | FC: Ian Somerhalder

Mason Crawford was born in 1979 in Beaumont, Tennessee. From a young age, Mason had been a reckless kid. He looked up to his older brother, John David III, but also knew he could get away with much more than his brother could, and so he did, much to his mother’s dismay. When he was fifteen, he dropped out of high school to run away with the love of his life, but returned a short nine months later when they broke up. Despite his mother’s pleas to return to school, Mason got a job at Gorman’s auto shop and has been working there ever since. When he was 24, he met a girl from Nashville who had happened to stop by The Catfish to get a drink while he was drinking with his buddies. With the help of liquid courage, Mason asked to buy her a drink, which led to two drinks, which led to a first date. Him and Magnolia have been married for fourteen years now and have four kids together: Presley Ann (13), Virginia (10), Willow (9), and Noah (5). 

Josephine Nicks | 39 | Pediatric Nurse Practitioner | FC: Zooey Deschanel

Josephine Crawford, better known as Jo, was born in 1980 in Beaumont, Tennessee. When she was born she had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. The midwife warned John David II and Suzannah that she may not make it through the night, and if she did, she may have severe brain defects for the rest of her life due to a lack of oxygen. But Jo made it through the night, and showed no signs of mental defects as she grew up. She was a tomboy through and through thanks to having two older brothers to look up to. Jo was the first of the Crawfords to go to college, where she attended the University of Memphis and got a degree in nursing. While she was attending school, she met a med student named Wilson Nicks, one of the only black men in his class of medical students, and fell in love, despite the controversy they faced being an interracial couple in the south in the early 2000s. After graduating, they married and have been married now for sixteen years. Together they opened a family practice in Nashville. They have five kids: Layla (13), Jackson & Eloise (Twins, 11), Rhett (7), and Graham (2). 

Georgina Abel | 35 | 3rd Grade Teacher at Beaumont Elementary | FC: Alexandra Daddario

Georgina Crawford was born in 1984 in Beaumont, Tennessee. Right from the start you could see a maternal streak in Georgie. Unlike her sister, she didn’t like rough-housing with her older brothers. Instead, she played by herself, mostly with her dolls as she set up fake homes and classrooms to teach them, cook for them, and take care of them. It was no surprise to her parents when she graduated high school and decided to earn her degree in english and teaching. After graduating from Tennessee State University, Georgina got a job in her hometown at Beaumont elementary teaching third graders. She spent a few years focused on that, and very much single (she had been in a somewhat serious relationship in high school to Roscoe Reeves, which had ended up leaving her heartbroken for a long while) to her mother’s dismay. At twenty-six, she met Earl Abel while out in Nashville with friends for a weekend. After a year of dating, they got married. They have now been married for eight years and have three kids: Harrison (7), Keaton (4), and Peyton (1). Georgina would still like to have one more girl. 

Hayes Crawford | 32 | Manager at a Michelin Star Restaurant in Nashville | FC: Henry Cavill 

Hayes Crawford was born in 1987 in Beaumont, Tennessee. For four years he was the youngest in the family and was absolutely babied to death. Georgina liked to take care of him the most because she had always wanted a younger sibling, but by the time he was talking and running around at two, he loved to play with his older brothers, which almost always resulted in him getting hurt. Hayes had been the athletic one of the bunch and his parents had signed up him for any sports he wanted to play. It turned out he had a real knack for football and played all throughout high school. His senior year during their championship game, Hayes had been injured so badly he was hospitalized for seven months. The doctor had warned him he would never step foot on a football field again. The road to recovery had been a long one, and Hayes had waited a year before going to college at the University of Tennessee where he majored in business and hospitality. He now lives in Nashville with his wife of five years, Carol Ann. They have one daughter, Cecelia (1), and another child on the way.

Rick Nolan: The Real Wolf of Wall Street. The Ty Warner penthouse suite at the Four Seasons is reserved exclusively for him anytime he is in the city on official business. 

Nolan Sr. is on the Forbes billionares’ list. Nolan fam wealthy AF. 

Like, super wealthy.

They have a private jet (and a helicopter).

Jude grew up in a mansion with a maid and a nanny and a driver the spoiled little shit.

Jude’s fav sibling: Jenny. But Carson comes in at a close second. 

Irregardless of their wealth and holidays spent in France and Italy, Rick Nolan wanted the kids to grow up relatively normal. This is why he enrolled them all in a public school in Stony Point.

But college was srs business and he made sure Carson got into Yale. 

With Jude they had less luck, he ended up in Columbia (and dropped out a few semesters later).

The black sheep of the family is def Jenny tho. Got pregnant at sixteen & dropped out & left when her mother started listing abortion clinics. 

She moved to Philly with the babydaddy and became a stripper to support herself and Jake after he was born. 

The Nolan parentals don’t talk about her much and tell relatives she is volunteering for charities overseas.

Jude similarly found himself cut off after he dropped out of Columbia and told his parents he was starting a band instead.

They did crash his great-aunt’s funeral together though and that was fun. 

Since dropping out of college at 18 Jude has only relied on his own money and means, even if that meant being completely broke at times, and he is very proud of that fact.
