'''Harriet Victoria Ashby''' (née '''Weston''') is [[Barbara]]'s younger sister and [[Chris]]'s aunt. She was born on 9 January 1947 and married '''Thomas Eugene Ashby''' on 29 May 1964 in [[wikipedia:Charlotte County, VA|Charlotte County, Virginia]]. Tom was born on 28 October 1942.<ref>http://www.harveypowers.com/wynn/wynn/d150.html#P150</ref> As of 2014 they were living in Chesterfield County near [[Richmond]] and had recently moved from a house to a condominium. Chris leaked their previous home address in the [[Miyamoto emails]], hoping that Shigeru Miyamoto would send them a letter to somehow establish his legitimacy.<ref>[[Miyamoto emails#Please Give Me $800|Chris leaks the Ashbys' address to Miyamoto-san]]</ref>

For unclear reasons, the Chandlers are not on great terms with the Ashbys. According to [[Cousin Al|Al]], Barb aggressively went after one of her sisters' husbands or fiancés when she was younger, alienating herself from most of her siblings. Al suspects that it was Tom she went after.<ref>[[Catherine#The_bowling_outing]]</ref> In [[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022|a letter from jail]], Chris revealed that Tom and Barb had dated in high school.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022]]</ref> Chris claims that Barb, who was a year older than Tom, amicably broke off their relationship when she graduated in order to go off to college but that her sisters inexplicably spread rumors about her and called her a slut. One possibility is that Barb attempted to steal Tom away from Harriet when they were engaged in 1963 or 1964. At the time, Barb was a recently-divorced single mother, and she may have hoped to rekindle her past romance with Tom so that he would marry her instead and take care of her infant son [[Cole]]. Whatever drama happened between Barb and her family, her older sister [[Corrina]] seems to have remained on good terms with her, which explains why the Chandlers were still invited to Weston family gatherings during Corrina's lifetime. After Corrina died in [[2009]], Barb's remaining relatives started to exclude the Chandlers from social events, although Tom and Harriet never cut them off completely.

Harriet is a former administrative assistant<ref>[[Chandler Family Tree|Poké Family Tree]]</ref> who seems to admire the American presidents, and considering the number of flags she has on her Christmas tree, she is a TRUE and HONEST [[United States of America|American]] patriot. She once gave Chris a map of the fifty states with slots for the [[wikipedia:50 State quarters|state quarters]] as a present which he completed years later in summer 2010.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 3#Meet Chris's troll persona]]</ref><ref>[[Trollin Train#Hey, guys (Sun 22 Aug 2010)]]</ref> Other gifts from Harriet to the Chandlers include Chris's old fold-out bed<ref>[[LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2013-2014#Chris fucks himself]]</ref> and a CD of big band romantic [[music]] which she gave Bob for his 84th birthday shortly before his death.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 31]]</ref> [[niggos|Uncle Tom]], according to Chris, is a retired fire inspector and offered Barb advice after her [[2014 house fire|house caught on fire]].

As Chris told [[Catherine]] during [[Catie Date Conversation Transcript|her meeting with him]] in 2014, Harriet and Tom were in the habit of talking with Barb every Saturday over the phone, but they would not allow her over to their condo or even give her their address (probably a wise decision, all things considered). At the time, they were the last family members with whom Chris and Barb were still in touch.

Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom were the relatives with whom Chris intended to stay when the revelation of [[Affair with Mother|his incestuous relationship with Barbara]] led to his being evicted from [[14 Branchland Court]] on 30 [[July 2021]] They revoked their invitation to Chris after the nature of his offense became apparent, and even contacted the police to tell them he was not welcome on their property.<ref name=SeanDMs/> leading to his arrest in Richmond on 1 [[August 2021]]. Chris eventually confirmed this himself in the first jail letter that leaked to the public.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 19 September 2021]]</ref>

According to a [[Jail Letter - 27 November 2021|letter from Chris]] to [[Kengle|Kenneth Engelhardt]], Harriet and Tom gave Barb assistance after her car accident on 23 [[November 2021]], along with Barb's brother [[Minor Family Members#Wayne Weston|Wayne]].
