Matilda was Lloyd's wife and owner of the ship that went down with Maggie and James mother - father went to prison for being a coward. Lloyd died at some point but he put guns on the ship. Matilda felt she owed twins.
Terri Stuhltrager

was the owner of the ship Josephina Eterna.

As the book was so long and traversed a long time period, I suspected we may meet a host of characters. So pen and paper beside me when I started on the journey, and scribbled down all the characters etc - one half for current day, one for the historical stuff. It worked! Wish I had done this with Kate Atkinson's Behind the Scenes at the Museum - may have to revisit that one!

As Terri and Nancy commented, but also Matilda financed the Great Circle trip that Marian and Eddie undertook.

Lol. I had the same question on Matilda, so I ended up drawing a family tree to link all of the characters. I first thought the book obviously needed that reference page at the start (way more than the route map) but after going back to remember/reference who was who, I found that I enjoyed that process and was glad I had to do that, cumbersome as it started out to be.

I have the same question.....anyone have a list of characters in Great Circle?

I had the same question when I got that part, then it kind of clicked how they are related. A eureka moment for me. ;)
