Cornelia Grimm was a woman descended to the Brothers Grimm (specifically Wilhelm Grimm) and a relative of Breane Campell-Bailey. Bree found out about her through an old letter she found in her attic with her late grandmother's things.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Her grandparents moved to the the United States from Germany when they were young. She was most likely born and raised in Connecticut.
Monitoring Magical Phenomena[]
She lived in a house on Mystic Lane 1729 in Willow Grove, Connecticut, with the Sisters Grimm, a group of women who monitor the Portals and "magical phenomena" in the Otherworld. Anneliese lived with them too, until her wedding to Stephen Campbell. They were very close, but lost touch in later years.
2012[]
In search of her ancestry, Bree goes to visit her and finds out Wilhelm Grimm was Cornelia and Anneliese's fourth-great-grandfather. Cornelia tells her she and several other relatives, many of them women, all lived at the house in Connecticut at some point, and probably gave the neighbors the idea they were a coven.[1]
The Sisters know about the story of the Grande Armée, and Bree fills them in on the events that occurred in the Fairy Tale World when the army came out of the portal. In turn, they tell her about the sisterhood.
