Biography[]
Known Facts[]
Little is known about Chas. Snicket, though it can be assumed their name is Charles, as that is what "Chas" tends to be short for. He had two siblings- A, whose whereabouts are unknown, and B, whose whereabouts are uninteresting.
He had three children- D, E and F, and each of them had three children themselves. The only known names are those of E and Jacob Snicket's children- Jacques, Kit and Lemony. This, therefore, makes Chas. the great grandparent of Beatrice Baudelaire II. He is also the grandfather of G, H, I, M, N and O.
It is presumed that Chas. once gave Lemony a small wooden box over 500 years old. The box has a secret lock that can only be opened with a secret code which Chas. taught his grandson. Chas. learned it from his grandfather, who learned it from his grandfather, and so on. Inside, Lemony keeps a key which opens another box given to him by a woman whom Chas. refused to speak of. Inside this box is a detailed map of the City which lists many conspiracies and uncommon knowledge. For example, it lists the locations of V.F.D. tunnels.[2] This is presumed to be Chas.- however, as Lemony only mentioned it was his grandfather, it could be his paternal grandfather instead of maternal, and thus not be them.
Theories[]
Chas. is presumed (but not confirmed) to be a member of VFD, as the Snickets appear to be a VFD family,[1] and to be deceased.
A theory is that, on the family tree, G and I stand for Gregor and Ike Anwhistle. Their parent, D, could potentially be their mother, who is noted to have one eyebrow (a trait shared by Jacques) and one ear[3], which could also make her the student of Ishmael;[4] as the student was an orphan, this would mean Chas. is deceased.
Another theory is that M and O on the family tree are Miranda and Olivia Caliban, which would make Friday Caliban Chas's great-granddaughter.[4]
