I could be completely off here because I haven't watched DS (except for a few special episodes here and there) since 1997, and with so much story it's nearly impossible to remember it all in detail, but I began to wonder: Did we ever learn with absolute certainty that Nicholas and Angelique hooked up in 1796 and she went directly from 1796 to 1968 and her Cassandra persona? Or is this, like so many other things, something we've all generally assumed?
As we know, prior to the 1840 storyline Angelique's timeline goes from 1795/96 to 1968, where she's first Cassandra and then Angelique the vamp; she betrays Nicholas and is sent by Diablos back to 1796, where Ben torches her in the tower room; Quentin and Evan summon her to 1897; she remains flitting about the world doing whatever until she surfaces on Little Windward Island as Mrs. Sky Runson in 1970; and from there we have no idea where she might have gone because she's simply never seen again in the present after the conclusion of Leviathans.
However, if there's any possibility that Angelique and Nicholas didn't meet up until some point after 1840, the idea that she continued to make pilgrimages to the mausoleum between 1796 and 1840 wouldn't actually alter her timeline in any way. And it would make perfect sense that in 1840 she has no knowledge of the future because so far as she's concerned none of the events that we've seen taken place (1968/banishment to 1796/1897/1970) have happened for her yet.
