Claire left Jamie in 1746 and returned to Frank in 1947. That is a 202 year difference. She traveled with Jamie’s father’s ring and it was missing the stone when she got to 1948. Geillis/Gillian goes through the stones in 1968 and clearly travels back more than 203 years because she’s there before Claire. We don’t know if she got there 1 or 5 years before but if she got there 5 minutes before then she went back 225 years. Clearly she was there enough time to establish herself and seduce Arthur Duncan into marriage so I’d guess 230 years. Source: Through A Glass, Darkly
Claire told Black Jack Randall he’d die at the Battle of Culloden. Jack Randall was believed killed at Wentworth after the Jamie’s escape. If he dies early does that mean Frank won’t be born? Source: Wentworth Prison
Geillis and Claire are arrested and charged with witchcraft. Claire realizes Geillis poisoned Arthur so she could be free to marry Dougal whose child she is carrying. Claire realizes the Jacobite cause is what brought the two together. Geillis says, “I only regret I have but one life to lose for my country,” which Claire recognizes as Nathan Hale’s famous last words from the American Revolution. In the courtroom, the two are declared witches. Geillis tells Claire she thinks it is possible (meaning return to the future) and then 1-9-6-8. Geillis announces she’s a witch and Claire is innocent. She confesses to killing Arthur and then pulls down her dress to reveal a “mark of the devil” which Claire realizes is a vaccination scar and realizes Geillis is from 1968. Geillis is also a time traveler! Source: The Devil's Mark
Claire goes in search for Geillis and finds her in the woods doing a druid/pagan ritual. Claire notices the similarities to the dancers at the stones. Claire watches on as Geillis dances noticing Geillis is pregnant. When Geillis finish’s her ritual she calls for Claire to come out. Claire confronts Geillis about the pregnancy. Geillis tells Claire not even Arthur knows and when Claire asks how that is possible Geillis tells her Arthur hasn’t seen her out of her cloths. Geillis confesses that Dougal is her love and the child is his. Geillis tells Claire her ritual or summoning is to ask for Dougal and her freedom from their respective marriages.
