personality;; Grace is the nicest person you could probably find. With all the things her had gone through in her life, she still was able to keep a smile on her face. She is nice to everyone she meets, and doesn't discriminate against anyone. Many would probably see her a grandmother figure, but many are intimidated by her, which she does not mind. She doesn't like to get into fights, and is far too forgiving for most things.

history;;
Grace has always been a well mannered, caring, and thoughtful person. She was born in 1940 along with her sister to two loving parents. It was only a year into World War 2, and her father was off serving in the British Army. He would write to them all every day, even if Grace and her sister Samantha didn't understand the words, their mother read it to them. Explaining as best as she could. However one day, in 1944, a year before the war ended...the letters stopped arriving. The three women were worried about where they were, until a man from the Military showed up at their door and gave them terrible news. Graces father had been killed in combat during the D-Day invasion. He had received the purple heart, and any other medals were given to the now grieving family.
It was a hard few years to adjust without their father, but her mother had gotten two jobs and worked her ass off for the two girls to have a proper life. They were left in the care of a nanny for much of their early lives, until they turned 11. Grace and Samantha had both received their acceptance letters to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Their mother was over joyed and excited that they got in, and went with them to Diagon alley to get their school supplies. Grace was excited to be able to go someplace new and learn the things that her mother used to talk about. Learn about magic, and everything else involved with it.
Grace and Samantha had gone on the Hogwarts express not longer after that, and were off to school. Grace was sorted in Hufflepuff, and her sister Samantha was sorted into Ravenclaw. Despite being in different houses however, the two sisters were close. Grace made plenty of friends in her house, and knew that everything would be great at the school. The years had gone on, and Grace had found a love for all of her classes. She wasn't the smartest or the best student in terms of grades, but she never questioned everything, she always did her homework without a complaint. This was all due to her upbringing and respecting her mother and everything she said. It was just easier for her to stick to that style of thinking instead of breaking the rules
In her 7th year she had met the man who would become her future husband. She never really noticed him before then, but he had noticed her. His name was William Augustus Arlington. He was a Gryffindor student, and the same age as her. She had recognized him in passing, but never spoke to him. She had learned a lot about him in their 7th year, building up a friendship before finally going out on a date with him to Hogsmeade. When they both graduated from Hogwarts they continue to stay in touch. Meanwhile her sister was off doing her own thing, wanting to travel the world and see new places, Grace was more than happy to stay in the United Kingdom with William and spend more time with him.
When they were both at the age of 25 they got married. It was one of the Happiest days of Graces life, and she only wished that her father could have been there to witness it. They had gone on a honeymoon to America, traveling cross country before returning back home. They didn't rush into having kids until Grace was in her 30's. At age 31, she had given birth to her first daughter, Allison Arlington. She was the light of their life, and they both had been living well off lives. Grace had returned to Hogwarts to become a teaching assistant and would eventually take over the class when the current teacher retired. Her husband William had become a vehicle mechanic and owned a garage in London. He had taken care of their daughter whenever Grace was out of the house. At the age of 34 they both decided to have another child. Nine months later, Melanie Arlington had been born. Allison was excited to have a sister that she could play with, and helped her parents watch after the second child.
The years had gone on, they had been a happy family. Allison and Melanie had been accepted into hogwarts at 11, and went through everything their mother did. William had a booming business with the garage, and Grace had become a teacher for Herbology at Hogwarts. It was a good time for them all. Despite the rumors and stories of a dark wizard roaming the wizarding world under the name Lord Voldemort. Many witches and wizards had lost their lives, and plenty of families were ruined because of it. However as time went on, Grace had moved onto another teaching position, giving Herbology to Professor Sprout.
The year 1998 came and everyone was high strung because of the last few years. Voldemort returning, Harry Potter being the one who would save them all, the Ministry becoming corrupted and more strict. Things had slowly gotten worse, and finally...Voldemort had made his move on the school. Grace had forbade her daughters from fighting in the war, and to stay with their father. Grace had a job to do for the school as a teacher there, and protected it to the best of her ability from the Death Eaters. The battle was hard fought, and it eventually led to the victory over the Dark Forces, and things slowly quieted down. Death Eaters were rounded up and sent to Azkaban. The bodies of the dead were sent to their families and buried, and those who survived helped rebuild the school. It was a dark time, but the war was over, and that meant peace.
Things had gone well with the rebuilding, there was a lot that had to be done, but it could easily be fixed. in 2010 however...Grace, Melanie and Allison had a hard hit dealt to them. The man in their lives, Grace's Husband William, died of Cancer. He was at the age of 70 and it was a hard loss for everyone in the family. However Grace needed to be strong for her daughters, and promised them that everything would be alright. She had returned to Hogwarts at the age of 71 and was picked amongst a large group of people, by the ministry, to become the Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. she happily accepted and had begun straight away. She knew the job wouldn't be easy, but she wasn't going to let anyone down.
It is now 2014, and Grace is still Headmistress, her daughters are teaching at Beauxbatons and her youngest daughter has a family of her own. Her sister also had a family, and her Granddaughters, Claire and Charlotte Flemmings were at Hogwarts. Even though Grace was their great aunt, she didn't play favorites or treat them any differently than other students. However she was sometimes a lot nicer to them than other students, but she was always as nice as she possibly could be.
