Baron Sylvester Gale is the father of Susie. Born in 1810, he lived a privileged and spoiled childhood, growing up to be a rake as a young man- his father sought to end this as soon as possible. He all but forced Sylvester to enlist in the military and he became a part of the Royal Lancers (cavalry) and there he learned discipline and shaped up... mostly. 

When he took over his father's business, he transformed the Gale company into a textile firm, focusing on cotton goods. On one of his business excursions, he was introduced to a young lady- the daughter of a Dutch trader- and they were married that year in 1839. They had their first and only daughter Susie in 1842, Sakura dying in childbirth.

He died in 1858 of tuberculosis, leaving his vast wealth and fortune to his only daughter.
