  Life Traces: Raitt
The Duckworths were part of the machinery of life to the Stephens; they could be useful or they could be a nuisance; they could be looked to for fun or fuss, as the case might be, but for the most part they were incomprehensible.
All mention of George Duckworth in her letters and satires dismissed him lightly as a fatuous snob but in her last breakdown, the doctor reported, she said that she was haunted by George Duckworth whom she had “evidently adored”.
Gerald and George probably took out their rage against their mother and stepfather on the bodies of their stepsisters, who might have seemed to have been given preferred status in the Stephen home … Whatever the pathology of George and Gerald, it was part of a family pattern that involved emotional deprivation.

 Dialogues@RU - Volume Three, Spring 2004
Woolf believes the first abuse by Gerald Duckworth to be a moment of “being” because she recounts the experience early in “A Sketch of the Past” adjacent to other primary, yet powerful moments of “being.” Woolf remembers thinking, “how I stiffened and wriggled as his hand approached my private parts.
Woolf’s sarcastic tone comments upon her community’s twisted view on how caring and supportive George Duckworth was for his pitied sisters and thus shows the absurdity of the entire episode.
Gerald’s sexual abuse had already formed a moment of “being,” and therefore any such repetitious instances become moments of “non-being.” The latter abuse was merely an extension of the former.

Born Adeline Virginia Stephen in London to Sir Leslie Stephen and Julia Princep Duckworth (1846-1895), she was educated by her parents in their literate and well-connected household at 22 Hyde Park Gate, Kensington.
Laura Makepeace Stephen (1870-1945), Leslie's daughter with Minny Thackeray, was declared mentally disabled and lived with them until she was institutionalised in 1891 to the end of her life; and Leslie and Julia's children: Vanessa Stephen (1879-1961); Thoby Stephen (1880-1906); Virginia; and Adrian Stephen (1883-1948).
Sir Leslie Stephen's eminence as an editor, critic, and biographer, and his connection to William Thackeray (he was the widower of Thackeray's eldest daughter) meant that Woolf was raised in an environment filled with the influences of Victorian literary society.
