Tomgallon family

The Tomgallon family is a family that lived in Summerside, Prince Edward Island. Before the rise of the Pringle family, they were once an even bigger royal family. Unfortunately, they all died out after six generations, and the only surviving member of the family that was left was Minerva Tomgallon.

About the family
Long before the Pringles, the Tomgallon family was a very prominent and aristocratic family in Summerside. They lived in a very big house, the Tomgallon House, that Minerva's great-grandfather, Paul Tomgallon, issued built by an unknown carpenter. Paul held the carpenter to the contract and charged the carpenter more than he expected. The carpenter then cursed the Tomgallons, which began a multi-generation curse that affected the family in odd ways.

Despite the curse, however, the Tomgallons achieved a prominent status within Summerside. However, the curse affected them, causing a slow and steady decline of the prominent family and letting other families, such as the Pringle and Courtaloe families take over. Eventually, after six generations, only one member, Minerva Tomgallon, remains.
