Downton Abbey: A New Era
In 1928, the Earl of Grantham's widowed son-in-law, Tom Branson marries Lucy Smith, Lady Bagshaw's secret illegitimate daughter and sole heir to the Bagshaw estate. Soon after, Robert's mother, Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess, informs the family that she inherited a villa in France from the Marquis de Montmirail, who she met in the 1860s. Violet is bequeathing the villa to her great-granddaughter, Sybbie, Tom's young daughter with the late Lady Sybil Crawley. The new Marquis invites the family to visit. The ailing Violet is unable to travel, but Tom and Lucy, Robert and his wife Cora, their daughter Edith and her husband Bertie Pelham, the Marquess of Hexham, and Lady Bagshaw journey to France. Robert's valet, Bates, and Cora's maid, Baxter, go with them.
