Mr. Edward Gardiner is Mrs. Bennet's sensible and intelligent brother. It is unknown how old he is, but that his wife is younger then his sister, but he could very well be older then Mrs. Bennet. He resides in London, in Gracechurch Street (near Cheapside), as well as rather close to his own warehouse. He is married to Mrs. Gardiner and has four children, two girls age six and eight (as of July) and two younger boys with a slight possibility of them having more. He relies on his income from “A Very respectable line of trade” and is fond of fishing.
