FAMILY TREES

# Duck Family Tree [1] (early 1950s)

Barks, 1991:
- evidently whipped out without a great deal of serious thinking
- It jibes closely with my new tree [2], of which I enclose an UPDATED copy [3] that shows the two differ only in the origin of Gus Goose.
- [Goosetave or Goosetail] I will vote for Goosetave. It sounds more North European, the natural home latitudes of ducks and geese.

Image

Construction of tree:

Old "Scotty" Mcduck

> Matilda McDuck m. Goostave Gander
>> adopted Gladstone, orphan son of Donald's aunt Daphne

> Scrooge McDuck $

> Hortense McDuck [+ Quackmore Duck]
>> Thelma Duck
>>> Huey, Dewey, and Louie
>> Donald Duck

Grandma Duck

> Don's father, Quackmore duck [+ Hortense McDuck]
>> Thelma Duck
>>> Huey, Dewey, and Louie
>> Donald Duck

> Don's aunt Daphne, married Luke the Goose *
one son. Gladstone. he was ophaned when Daphne and Luke overate at a free lunch picnic

* Gus Goose was a nephew of Luke the Goose. making him a very distant "_cousin_" of Donald



# Tree [2] (1991, March)

Barks, 1991:
- spend hours combing the pages of the CBL for stories with references to family relatives
- exchange between Don and Gladstone ("Race to the South Seas")
- Finally I had to contruct the "Tree" which I enclose here and which uses Grandma as the point of origin.
- In it I have Donald's MOTHER be Scrooge's sister. Somehow it works.

Image

Construction of tree:

Grandma Duck

> daughter. wed a Goose. hatched
>> Gus Goose (Don's cousin)

> daughter. wed a Gander. hatched
>> Gladstone Gander (Don's cousin)

> son. (Don's father) wed M.McDuck, sister of Scrooge McDuck. hatched
>> Donald
>> Don's sister
>>> Huey. Dewey, Louie

thus Uncle Scrooge is Donald's uncle on his mother's side.
Gladstone is donald's cousin
Gladstone's mother's brother is don's father,
who's wife's brother is Scrooge McDuck.
Gladstone is the son of Scrooge McDuck's
sister's sister-in-law

Notes:
There's no reference to the old family tree [1] in CBL. It "jibes closely" with this new tree, of which Barks send an "UPDATE" [3].



# Tree [3] April 1991, more or less

Barks, 1991:
- Thanks for sending the "legendary" family tree [1], which I recognize as my work and which I evidently whipped out without a great deal of serious thinking. It jibes closely with my new tree[2], of which I enclose an UPDATED copy that shows the two differ only in the origin of Gus Goose.
- Please let me know how the updated duck family tree strikes you.

Construction of tree:

[unpublished]

Descriptions by the owner, Don Rosa:
"The revised Family Tree [3] he then sent me was the same as the one you see [2] in that album #42, only he eliminated Gus Goose and Grandma's second daughter from the Tree, and added "Old Scotty" McDuck and $crooge's two sisters back -- so this apparently acted as a reaffirmation of the 1950's Tree [1] with the elimination of that aforementioned complication involving Gladstone." [parents dying of overeating at a free picnic]
"But the specific item you desire to see can be imagined easily enough -- the second revised Tree that Barks sent me was a xerox of the first new one he'd sent, only with "Old Scotty", Matilda and Hortense penciled in on one side, and Gus Goose and his mother scratched off the other. There were no names for Grandma's children added..."
(DCML, 23 September 2003)

The 1950s Duck Family Tree [1] mentions that Gladstone's parents died at a free lunch picnic. Rosa mentions this as a complication. However, there's a precedent in Barks's 'The Old Castle Secret' of 1948, which learns that ancestor Sir Roast McDuck died from overeating after robbing the king's pantry. (5.7)


SOURCES:
- comics quotes taken from publications in 'The Carl Barks Library'
- first tree is taken from "Feature page - The Duck Family Tree" ('The Carl Barks Library' set 6)
- second tree and Barks's comments are taken from 'Raiders of the Lost Barks', article by Geoffrey Blum, 1998 (Uncle Scrooge Adventures No. 42 - Isle of Golden Geese)
- description of the third and final tree is taken from an email by Don Rosa, sent to the Disney Comics Mailing List on 23 September 2003 (DCML Digest, Vol 7, Issue 45)

If you don't understand any English, than for the love of God, please don't try to participate in an English forum and just stick to the Dutch section! Here, you have to typ in English and not in Dutch!
