I was thinking about the age difference between Barnaby and Florence, Florence being roughly a year younger.
So I was like in my head:
I can see toddler Barnaby waddling about and yelling and starting adorable chaos while Florence sits on blanket or on their mother’s lap, possibly gumming at a cloth toy of the period.
Then Florence out of enjoyment of his big brother’s antics giggles or maybe screeches back.
(Face reveal not looking my best today don’t judge, my curls need love and are drying, my wet flat hair makes me look bald, I have thick hair 😭)
Leaving now all geared up to enter Barnabys world! I have a train at 10!
Pretty sure I was looking at what may have been Florence Fitzpatrick’s own ink-smudged fingerprints pressed into the vellum centuries ago-
I was watching this video of these two brothers chanting and singing, and the eldest is probably three or four, and the younger one is maybe a year behind. This made me think of Barnaby and Florence.
Here I’ll type what the kids were saying in the video:
Older child: “Every evy day evy body!!”
Younger child: ba-wa!
Older child: “Every evy day evy body!!”
Younger child: ba-wa!
Older child: “Every evy day evy body!!”
Younger child: BA-WA!!”
Older child: “Every evy day evy body!!”
Younger child: BA-WAAAAA!!!

My friend was like: Barnaby and Florence were probably food goblins as children and adults together.”
And I was like yeah, Gaelic boys/ and decades as young soldiers marching for hours made it a thing.
Adhd brain rabbit hole randomly:
When Barnaby was four Florence would be three thus also making Donnell and Geoffrey two or one, depending on the order of which Donald and Geoffrey was born.
To me so far, it makes sense for Geoffry to be two.
Gosh, Margaret Had a House of Chaos with all those boys
The “chaos bunch” snapshot (Barnaby age 4, c. 1539)
In one household you likely have:
• Barnaby Fitzpatrick — age 4
• mobile, loud, opinionated, already testing authority
• Florence Fitzpatrick — age 3
• copying everything Barnaby does, probably worse
• Donnell or Geoffrey — age 1–2
• toddling, screaming, biting, grabbing
• Margaret Butler
• either postpartum, pregnant again, or both in living memory
That is three boys under five, born nearly back-to-back, in a household where:
• discipline is split between Gaelic custom and noble status
• wet nurses and servants rotate
• the father (Brian Fitzpatrick) is a dominant, looming presence
There is no modern concept of “quiet time.”
Why “chaos bunch” is the correct historical term
This isn’t just cute chaos — it’s structural chaos:
• Boys raised together that tightly often:
• roughhouse constantly
• form instant hierarchies
• learn dominance through physical presence, not words
• The oldest (Barnaby) would be:
• shoved into leadership by default
• never allowed softness for long
• trained early to “manage” others simply to survive the day
So by age four, Barnaby is already:
• used to noise
• used to competition
• used to being interrupted
• used to never being the sole focus
My brain was like: since Florence was among Barnaby’s men 6/10 times out of the year his schedule likely was based on what Barnaby was doing.
So their movements likely overlapped quite often.
Then my brain went: Barnaby probably interrogated a man during a campaign and Florence restrained this person.
