Elizabeth question

[josephhswife]

DD noticed that Nellie's promise is dated 1906. Does anyone know if Elizabeth's story will be in 1776?

Probably it will take place AFTER Changes for Felicity, so it will be in 1776. I think it may have more of the Revolution in it.

Wish they made a Felicity mystery. That would be neat!

Wow that would be aweome if her story was 1776 - exactly 200 years before I was born!

I can't wait to see Elizabeth.

The title of the Elizabeth story sounds too light hearted to resolve any questions. My guess is that it will take place at about the same time as " learns a lesson".
I hope that the questions about Elizabeth are resolved in the movie. Why did her family leave England? What circumstances will happen to cause her to change her loyalty to England. She is an " American Girl " therefore she must stay here.

It is very clear from _Felicity Learns A Lesson_ that Elizabeth's loyalty to England was the common view (she didn't change to it). In fact, Annabelle considers the move to Virginia to be quite a come down...

I've checked the above book, and as far as I can tell no reason is given as to why Elizabeth's family moved to Virginia.

Elizabeth and Annabelle could have been sheltered from the real reason why they left England. If the situation was as ideal as Annabell said they would have stayed there. Could there have been a financial loss of some kind ? Was family property willed to another relative ?

I thought it was implied that Elizabeth's father was involved in government? In "Happy Birthday" he seemed very involved with the British government, so I just figured he was there for those reasons. I haven't read Felicity's series in a while though, so I may be remembering wrong. Guess I should read it again soon in anticipation of Elizabeth!

I would just love to find out more about Elizabeth's life in England. I read in one of the books that they had a governess, so they were probably pretty cushy.
I would love to hear about it and find out why the Cole's came to America. Also I hope stupid Bananabelle learns how to be nice instead of the snob she usually is.
