I'm writing a book, and I need help with physical descriptions/personalities for my characters. Do these fit?
IN 1900s:
Abigale Katherine Cahillane: Very classic beauty, born in the early 1900s in England. Green eyes and bleach blond hair, almost white, halfway down her back, in thin, spiraling tendrils. Very tiny and petite. 24 years old. 5 feet 2 inches tall. Rich, and wife-to-be/fiance. Kind, caring, very warm smile. Deep in love, has found her soul mate. Not very studious, but still quite intelligent.

CURRENT DAY:
Harlow Evangeline Blackwell: 15 years old. Skinny, average height. Born in early 1990′s. Daughter of Amelia and Carlton Blackwell. Very serious, rarely laughs. Loves with all her heart. Has been through a lot. Mother died when she was 4. High soprano voice. Very straight, shoulder-length red hair and warm, deep brown eyes. About 5 feet 6 inches tall. Smart and intelligent, but not studious. Also lives in England.
Amelia Blackwell: Deceased mother of only child, Harlow Evangeline Blackwell. Wife of Carlton Blackwell. Kind and caring. Silly and very young for her age. Died at age of 32. Suicidal (although I don’t know for what yet. Suggestions are very welcome!!) Jumped off of a cliff to meet her death. Nobody knew she was suffering, always putting on a smile to make others happy. Put those she loved before herself. Deep brown eyes, and warm smile. 5 foot 4 inches. Small and petite. Wavy blond hair.
Carlton Blackwell: Father of Harlow Evangeline Blackwell. Husband to deceased wife, Amelia Blackwell. Lives in England. Strict, loving, caring, does what he thinks is best for those he loves. Is misunderstood by Harlow Evangeline, and Harlow Evangeline is misunderstood by him. Very quiet. 5 feet 9 inches tall. Red hair. Somewhat muscular, not like a body builder. Blue eyes, like the ocean. Was very strong and very manly before Amelia died. He was serious, she was silly and young for her age. Took good care of Amelia and was devastated when she died, because she told him everything and he didn’t know about her suicidal nature. Harlow Evangeline knows this and blames him for her mother’s death. After Amelia’s death, he turned hard and cold, and was very strict, unable to show his feelings, afraid of being hurt again, although Harlow Evangeline hurts him on a daily basis, just by blaming him for her mother’s death. Cannot bring himself to hurt Harlow Evangeline Blackwell, so he takes it in silence.

SO:
Basically, I wanted to know if you liked these physical descriptions of my characters, and their personalities, if they fit with the names I gave them. Also, I do realize that there is A TON to read, but please, bear with me, I really need help with this.
If you read the whole thing, you may have noticed that I have decided that Amelia Blackwell was suicidal. She jumped off a cliff, due to very deep depression, very secret, and nobody knew about her suffering. However, I have not decided WHY she was suffering,and why she was suicidal.
So basically, I would like your opinions on the physical descriptions and personalities, and also suggestions for why Amelia Blackwell was suicidal.
Thank you so much! If you made it this far, you are very nice for reading the whole darn thing! ![]()
