"Janet" Louise Counsell (née Warbrick) (born July 17, 1970) is the mother of Brandon Taylorian and is also the mother to Lucia Richardson and Charlotte Counsell. She remains a principal figure during The Founding of Astronism.
Born in Hoghton in 1970, Louise became pregnant at the age of 18 and gave birth to her daughter, Lucia, just prior to her nineteenth birthday in 1989 after she married Lucia's father. After that marriage imploded, Louise met Sean Taylor in 1993 and gave birth to their son, Brandon Taylor, on 1st July 1998. Her relationship with Sean collapsed in 2003 leaving their son Brandon, age four, in a broken family.
Louise grew up as an only child, but she wasn't meant to be. She had an older sister named Karen Warbrick, whom sadly passed away after an incident at the age of 4. Louise would therefore never meet her older sister.
