I was looking at [livejournal.com profile] iantos_desktop wondering if [livejournal.com profile] lorannah had posted any Children of Earth stuff. Instead I saw she made some very nice 19th/20th/21st timelines, though something very interesting on the twentith century timeline caught my attention. Since [livejournal.com profile] lorannah footnoted it with coming from "The Torchwood Archives" and me actually having that same book, I decided to look up the information myself.

...Those clever bastards. Lucia Moretti, one of the people mentioned in "Children of Earth" is mentioned in "The Torchwood Archives" as well. Both sources agree with her staffing date, 1968-1975, but disagree on her date of death. Torchwood Archives says 1998, CoE says 2006, and for a CoE reason, the Archives Date doesn't work.

Also, there's a lot of references to Children of Earth in the James Moran's Captain's Blog Ongoing Archive notes of a Dr. Patanjali as a young medic at the hospital asking about Torchwood. On the Lost Souls page there's also a yellow sticky post with "Why can I find no trace of Jim and Mary Sangster at the GRO?"

EDIT: Earlier in the book there are two post-its that also contain references. The first is "Who is Timothy White? and the other is "Where is Clemont McDonald?" Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] eawen_penallion tip-off that there were even more references.

Now, what do all of these references mean? Obviously, the Dr. Patanjali is Dr. Rupesh Patanjali in "Day One" who is a doctor and government plant trying to get employment at Torchwood.

Lucia Moretti is Alice's mother, and her retirement date from Torchwood co-incides with Alice's birth - Alice's original name was Melissa Moretti. When they went into deep cover in 1977, Alice's "new parents" were James and Mary Sangster which are placeholder names. Presumably Lucia became Mary, as they were born in the same year, and "Grandmum" taught Stephen about bugging out quickly. Since Stephen was born in 1999, Lucia had to have died in 2006.

I wonder if there's any references to Lilian Cartwright, who works in the council offices, or SilverClaw who a member of the school computer club in any of the audioplays, books, or audio exclusives.
