Parents

Paul Cormalen: Paul was born on a farm similar to the one that the family lived in in Joseph's youth. He grew up managing the farm with his father and two brothers. His sisters and mother worked on the day to day chores such as milking the cows and churning the butter. The family always felt that doing things the older way was more natural, thus better, for children. Paul met Alana Forrer, his future wife, on a visit into the town. They started to meet more often and were eventually wed on June 7, 2360.

Alana Forrer: Alana grew up in the small town of Haliburton, where the people had insisted on keeping the town small, and, thanks to the weather protection grid, peaceful. There were farms out around the area, and Alana had always dreamed of living on a farm. She didn't quite understand how much work was involved then. She met Paul when he came into the town, and it was basically love at first sight. Paul never wanted to leave farming, so Alana jumped right into it after their honeymoon and worked in the house. The family was very happy when the three children came into the world.

Siblings

Mackenzie Cormalen: Mackenzie was born in 2361 to Paul and Alana Cormalen. He was beginning to learn how to work when Joseph was born. Mackenzie was exhilirated to have a sibling, and a close bond appeared between the brothers. The boys would spend hours playing in the barn and the fields, as well as with their younger sister Karen. Once Mackenzie had graduated from high school, he applied to the Academy and was accepted. However, a year later he died in a fire at his home while dragging Joseph out.

Karen Norand: Karen was born in 2366 to Paul and Alana Cormalen. She was their third and last child. When she wasn't helping her mother work on the farm, she was out and about playing with her brothers. She decided not to go into Starfleet, and instead went to become a teacher. While in Toronto at university, she met Samuel Norand. They fell for each other and they were married in 2384.
