And they said if Chicago failed in that way again, they would have to scrap the entire idea of the experiments, since it would be the "last straw". Which is why when everyone was getting ready to go to war again in Chicago, they planned to reset their memories before they had the chance. Add a reference: Book Author.

Natalie is first generation and Tris is second generation. I remember that Tris was saying that she had a familiar smile SOOOO with that being said it has to be close in generations not like a great-great-great-great grandmother or anything. I cannot wait for the 3rd book. So much info to digest. O All cool theories, however. One thing that Veronica Roth is good at is to keep us guessing. Jun 14, PM. I think it was tris' mom too. Remember in the book more in the beginning tris mentions somthing about marriage about how the couple decides when they marry who's last name they decide to keep.
It usually being the more practicle choice if u one of them was from a fraction transfer. This could be a reason why they kept the prior name instead of taking tris' fathers name.
But I think tris would be a little more shocked when she saw her moms face on the screen and she didn't seem like she knew the woman sooo a little weird. Who really knows tho? Time sure will tell :. Well, I don't know, unless Tris' mom's name wasn't actually Natalie, then it couldn't have been her mother.
I mean, her mother's name is Natalie not Edith, but who knows? This whole thing is just a mystery that we're all trying to figure out. Like someone said, if it was tris mom she would have recognized her immediately. Unless Natalie changed her name and her appearance a lot. So I think I'm gonna say Edith is an aunt. Cuz that would fit into the whole second generation thing and the last name and the familiar smile.
Veronica Roth is probably having so much fun watching the world try to figure this out!!! I can't wait for number three! Jun 15, AM.

When I read this, I was Somaya wrote: "Jamie wrote: "I think you are all forgetting that Tris mentioned while, yes, families share last names, one of the parents takes the other's last name. When I re Why would you assume it's from her father's side?
I think it would make more sense for VR to make her from Natalie's side, seeing as she's made Natalie definitely seem like the stronger parent. Tris's father was very close-minded and wasn't Dauntless. Jun 16, PM. We know Edith isn't Natalie for 2 reasons Natalie was born Dauntless and switched plus Tris would recognize her own mother because while you don't like at your own reflection Tris always looked at other people.
Both of Tris parents were transfers but when they said 2nd generation instead of meaning 2nd generation born here they could mean 2nd generation of born divergent. Thats how i took it that neither of her parents were divergent so its "skipped" a generation or more. We also have no idea if Tris parents had siblings because if they did from other factions they wouldn't discuss it. I think more than anything i want to see Caleb's reaction i see his head on the verge of explosion with this knowledge.

I guess were all going to have to wait for next year to come. I think Edith Prior is Tris's aunt. I mean she's to old to be a sister, she seems too young for a grandmother so the only reasonable answer would be aunt or some relative.
Think about it both Tris's parents came from different factions and she never knew much about their lives. She never knew her mother was dauntless until she became dauntless herself. She never knew her dad had a different faction until after he died. How is she going to know her parents's siblings without knowing much about their lives? I would expect her to be a sister of Tris's dad.
But she also has a chance of being Tris's mom's sister since she was fighting for freedom. The dauntless are free so I think she would pick this faction. Anyway, it was a good book. Can't wait for the next one. Jun 18, AM.

Wait i need to re-read this but the video it doesn't say how old it is right? So for all we know this video if 50 years or more older right?
Having familiar family features several years later is completely possible, i have pictures of me and my grandmother at the same age and we look like sisters in the baby pictures we look like the same person I think it's a great grandmother or maybe even older.
Remember, Edith said eventually they would start seeing divergents pop up and only then should they return to society, or whatever is "out there. Jul 04, AM. Remember that in the book insurgent it says "Her smile broadens, and for a moment, i feel that I recognize her. Tris has seen pictures of her, or 2. Since Amanda Ritter changed her name to Edith Prior most people assume that she is from Tris' dad's side of the family.
Edith has to be old enough so no one remembers her but young enough that some people remember her. She also has to be old enough to be the one who declared the gate and the separation between Chicago and the rest of Illinois.
All in all, our best bet is to wonder and wait until fall when divergent 3 which has no name yet apparently comes out. Btw Natalie and Edith Prior are two different people. I think the file might be from to hundred years ago depending on human life span.
Plus Tris mentioned that one parent takes the others last name so it could be from her mother's side of the family or her father's. More likely her father's since her dad has brown hair and according to Tris' description " We'll only know in fall of Jul 06, PM.
Someone posted a link on one of the other discussions. Edith Prior is Tris's grandmother. Which makes sense as Tris is listed as second generation when she's in Jeanine's labs. That means her parents were first generation born inside the gates.
