Angelique in 1840 knew nothing about events in 1968, and had not experienced them yet. Â Â Julia had to tell her they'd met in 1968... it was the future in every sense for Angelique. Â Angelique when we first see her in 1840 had been visiting the mausoleum every year, I think, for a number of years. Â Â I forget if it was some "anniversary" of theirs. Â She would look at the casket and reflect in some way, and leave, and come back next year. She appears to have been living in the world for a long time, and seems totally "of" 1840.
Angelique didn't appear in 1840 because of Barnabas's arrival, because she didn't know about that when she showed up. Â I forget whether it was 1840 Barnabas still who was up and about, or 1970 Barnabas in his old body, but Angelique was surprised to find he'd been unchained. Â Â
Angelique's 1840 experiences have to take place (for her) before (her) 1968. Â Â When she goes back to 1795 following Barnabas, I wondered if there were two of her at that point, one who came back from 1968, and another who had recently left her grave, and who would then live on until 1840. Â Yes, she dies in 1840, but that's the kind of time-line rewriting they did over and over, without thinking of the consequences. Â Â Somehow Angelique's 1968 (and therefore 1897 too... in that order?) experiences must come after 1840 for her. Â Â
Could Blair and Ang had their encounter after she passed through 1840?
The "first time around", in an 1840 without time-travel interference, Angelique must have arrived to find a full casket as usual, with chains, and then just gone on her way, as in previous years.
