I suppose more evidence that you don't have to follow the CNR, especially if you're from an older generation. 1. Yeppers, my first thought upon seeing the Schnee family portrait and Jacques' portrait in his study was that he married into the family.

2. Nicholas founded the SDC around the time of the Great War, right? We don't know how long the Great War went on for, so Jacques could've been born during a time where the CNR tradition hadn't quite gained momentum yet. *Shrug*
