Hi everyone,
I'm still working on my fanfic, but I think that I decided to make my story [sort of] part of the reboot with regard to placement in world history, so Mac's a young man today. In the end, it came down to changes in the way that society views certain subjects and is more open to discussing (and providing resources for dealing with) them than in the 1970s.
However, I probably will stick with large chunks of the original canon, including using a lot of it for most of Mac's backstory. I think that this might be very confusing, so I'll probably end up posting a recap/explanation at the beginning of each installment to say what comes from the original canon and what comes from the reboot canon.
I'm new to using forums as a whole, and I'll try to figure out how to post my diagram version of this, but I wanted to post a family tree/guide for some of the characters in my story, most of which will show up in the first couple of installments. While much of the action takes place when Mac is young, especially early on, at least some of that framework comes from Mac reminiscing when he is much older, when he is a grandfather, watching his children navigate being adults and raising their own families.
The dates listed below are mostly approximate; I tried to change them to align with both canons, but they may change slightly.
So...here goes...
Kelly's father and paternal grandparents: Robert Carson- Archaeologist, 1965-Feb. 2004 son of: Simon Carson- Archaeologist, 1934-2021 and Lillian Smith- Homemaker, 1935-1997
Kelly's mother and her family: Rivkah Lieberman- Physicist, 1964-Feb. 2004 daughter of: Abraham Lieberman- Archaeologist, 1933-c. 2039 and Anne Josephine Cramer-Homemaker/Author, 1935-June 2004 who also had a son: Saul Lieberman, 1962-1966
I am changing Kate Malloy a little, too: Kate Malloy- Photojournalist, British in my version, 1980-2021
and, of course, SAM: Sean “SAM” Angus Malloy-Photojournalist, British in my version (but still grows up for several years in China), 2012-? m. Mei-Jan (updated from the original canon), they have 5 children, most of whom are within 10 years of Mac and Kelly's kids
Back to Kelly: Kelly Elizabeth Carson (Jewish name: Esther)-Archaeologist, May 14, 1994 (LTOA's original US airdate)-2085
Mac and Kelly's kids:
James Benjamin MacGyver- miscarried at 20 weeks, late summer/early fall 2020
Rivkah Ellen MacGyver- big sister, IDF-Equivalent EOD Tech, tough as nails, but still Daddy’s little girl, born c. 2032-? marries Boaz Levine an IDF Chaplain, they have 8 children
Simon James MacGyver- older twin, Historian, Adventurer, born c. 2037-? marries Ruth (b. Manipur, India), they have 3 children, including daughter Asenath, narrator of her own set of stories
Harold “Harry” Robert MacGyver- younger twin, Biochemist, born c. 2037-? marries Rachel (who was his best friend growing up), they have 2 children, who, in turn, are the only ones in this group of cousins to live most of their life in California
