John, Isobel and Elena

This is the family relationship between human John Gilbert, vampire Isobel Flemming, and their daughter, the cured vampire/doppelgänger Elena Gilbert.
==Early life==
Elena was born to her parents on June 22, 1992. John and Isobel met during high school and slept together, conceiving their child. At the end of Isobel's pregnancy, John led her to his brother, Grayson Gilbert, who delivered the baby girl he and his wife named Elena. Because they were so young, Elena's parents were forced to give their daughter up, and both teenagers left their daughter with the Gilberts.
