Duck family (Disney)

The **Duck family** is a fictional family of cartoon ducks. They are related to Disney character Donald Duck.

## Ancestors
In the comic story "The Family Tree Spree" (1962), Donald discovers that he has only two notable ancestors. One is **Columbust Duck**, who tried to prove the Flat Earth model. The other is **Deadeye Duck**, a stagecoach robber. If Columbust lived at the same time as Christopher Columbus, he would be Donald's oldest known relative on his father's side. On his mother's side, Donald's earliest known relative lived in the second millennium BC.

**Pintail Duck** was a 16th-century Duck relative. He was the first early ancestor to appear in person.

**Asa Duck** was the great-great-great uncle of Grandma Duck.

## First generation
**Humperdink Duck** is the earliest known modern Duck family member. He is the husband of Elvira Coot, known as "Grandma Duck". He is Donald's grandfather.

'*** (née **Coot*') is Donald's grandmother. She is the Duck family matriarch. In most stories, she is called "Grandma Duck".

## Second generation
**Quackmore Duck** (born 1875) is the father of Donald Duck. His parents are Humperdink and Elvira "Grandma" Duck.

**Hortense Duck** (née **McDuck**; born 1876) is the wife of Quackmore Duck and Donald's mother. She was born in Scotland and is the youngest sister of Scrooge McDuck.

**Daphne Gander** (née **Duck**) is Donald's aunt. She is the mother of Gladstone Gander.

**Eider Duck** is Donald's uncle.

**Lulubelle Duck** (née **Loon**) is the wife of Eider Duck. She is the mother of Abner and Fethry Duck.

**Upsy Duck** is Donald's uncle from the 1965 story "Mastering The Matterhorn", illustrated by Tony Strobl.

**Sheriff Dan Duck** (aka Cousin Dan) is an old cousin of Donald. He is the sheriff of a Western town called *Bent Spur Gulch*.

## Third generation
**Donald Duck** (born 1920) is the most well-known member of the family. He is the son of Quackmore and Hortense Duck. His girlfriend is Daisy Duck.

**Della Duck** is the mother of Huey, Dewey, and Louie.

**Fethry Duck** was Donald's cousin.

**Whitewater Duck** was only in the story "Log Jockey", published in ''Walt Disney's Comics and Stories'' #267 on December, 1962. According to that story, he is a distant cousin of Donald, and works as a lumberjack in the woods.

**Dudly D. Duck** is a cousin of Donald. He appears in the comic story "Why All the Crabby Ducks?".

**Nancy Duck** is a female cousin of Donald.

## Fourth generation
**Huebert "Huey"**, **Deuteronomy "Dewey"**, and **Louis "Louie" Duck** are Donald's three nephews. They are the identical triplet sons of Della Duck and an unnamed father.

**Dugan Duck** is Fethry Duck's nephew.

## Coot kin
The **Coot family** (usually called the **Coot Kin** in stories) are the relatives of Grandma Duck. They and the Clan McDuck make up the third major branch of Donald's family tree. The name "Coot" was used by several comic authors including Carl Barks. Don Rosa was the first to show their relationship to Donald. The members of the family are shown as white Pekin ducks like Donald, although real-life coots are typically black.

**Cornelius Coot** (1790–1880) founded Duckburg.

**Clinton Coot** (1830-1910) was first mentioned in *Uncle Scrooge Adventures* #27 in the story "Guardians of the Lost Library", first published in July 1994. There he was introduced as the son of Cornelius Coot and the founder of The Junior Woodchucks.

**Gertrude Coot** (née **Gadwall**) is the wife of Clinton Coot. She is the mother of Casey and Elvira Coot ("Grandma Duck").

**Casey Coot** (1860-c. 1960) she calls Huey, Dewey and Louie *cuginetti* (small/young cousins) and then *cugini* (cousins). This might mean that she and Donald's nephews share the same surname in English language because of a kinship.

**Dimwitty Duck** originally appears as an assistant of Donald Duck.

**Hustler Duck** is an obscure character that works as a marketing man.

**Moby Duck** appears to be a relative of Donald's. Their relationship is never specifically described. His name is a spoof of *Moby-Dick*.

The identity of '''''' is something of a mystery. The character does not appear in any stories.
