Earlier in his career in the C of E before the turn of the 20th Century,
Reverend Travis offered comfort and spiritual counseling to Lady Madge Cranleigh
in Oxfordshire which quickly turned to passion. Around 1890, Lady Cranleigh
gave birth to their son Charles, but she passed the child off as the second son
of her husband Lord Cranleigh.
After the death of George Cranleigh, Charles Cranleigh married Ann Talbot and became the new Lord of Cranleigh Hall. But about twenty years into his marriage, he also strayed and dallied with a young woman from the nearby village. Her family, the Cranaghs, had long been intertwined with the Cranleighs and in fact they could trace their family name back to the same root as the Cranleighs.
