TheClan McDuckis a fictionalScottish clanof cartoon ducks from whichDisneycharacterScrooge McDuckis descended. Within theDonald Duck universe,the clan is related to the AmericanDuck familythrough the marriage of Hortense McDuck and Quackmore Duck,DonaldandDella Duck's parents, giving both of them partial Scottish ancestry.
Clan McDuck was created by American comic book authorCarl Barks,who also created the character of Scrooge McDuck. Barks' 1948 story "The Old Castle's Secret,"in which Scrooge and his nephews search for hidden treasure in McDuck Castle, introduced the backstory of the clan. Other authors built on Barks' work, most notablyDon Rosain his 12-part comic sagaThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck(1992–94) which introduced Scrooge's immediate family.
Literary origins
[edit]In the early 1950s, Carl Barks was in his second decade of creating comic book stories starring Donald Duck and his various relatives. He had personally created several of the latter, including cousinGladstone Ganderand uncle Scrooge McDuck, although the specific relationships between them were still uncertain. To better define these relationships, Barks created a version of the McDuck/Duck/Cootfamily treefor his own personal benefit, incidentally creating several additional characters.
During his retirement, Barks' stories remained popular and gained him unexpected fame. Barks gave several interviews during which he answered questions about his stories and the characters he had created. In 1981, Barks described his personal version of Donald's family tree, which was used by amateur artist Mark Worden in drawing the family tree and including portraits of the characters mentioned. Worden's tree was first published in severalfanzines,and later in the Disney-licensedCarl Barks Library,a ten-volume hardcover collection of Barks' stories in black-and-white.
In 1987, Don Rosa, a long-time fan of Carl Barks and a personal friend of Mark Worden, started creating his own stories featuring Scrooge McDuck. His stories contained numerous references to older stories by Barks as well as several original ideas. After several years he gained a fan base of his own. In the early 1990s, theEgmont Group,the publishing house employing Rosa, offered him an ambitious assignment: he was to create the definitive version of Scrooge's biography and a family tree to accompany it. The project was intended to end decades of contradictions between stories which caused confusion to readers. The project was to becomeThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.The family tree accompanying it was first published inNorwayon July 3, 1993.
In the process of working on Scrooge's biography, Rosa studied Barks' old stories in detail. Rosa made note of as many clues as he could of Scrooge's past given by Barks – which Rosa dubbed "Barksian facts" – and used them to write new stories. Despite the ambitious nature of the project, Rosa himself stressed in the introduction to the book "...this version of Scrooge's life is not the 'official' version – there's no particular reason why I (or anyone else) should expect other Duck writers to adhere to my vision of Scrooge's history. As carefully and authentically as I sought to construct it, it was never intended to be anything but my personal telling of the life of Scrooge McDuck."[1]
Modern family tree by Carl Barks
[edit]The family tree below shows the McDuck portion of Donald's family tree according to Carl Barks. The chart is based on a 1950s sketch made by Barks for personal use, which was later illustrated by artist Mark Worden in 1981. According to Barks, Matilda McDuck is married to Goosetail Gander, and the couple adopts Donald's cousin Gladstone. The character Old "Scotty" McDuck does not appear in any stories, but eventually became Fergus McDuck in Don Rosa's stories.

The seat of Clan McDuck
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/98/McDuck_Castle.jpg/250px-McDuck_Castle.jpg)
Theseatof Clan McDuck isMcDuck Castle(alternately calledCastle McDuck) which is located in Dismal Downs, somewhere inRannoch Moor,a non-fictionalmoorlandarea in north-central Scotland approximately 100 miles (160 km) north ofGlasgow.The nearest village is the fictional MacDuich. The castle usually appears in good condition considering its great age. However, in the Barks story "Hound of the Whiskervilles" (1960) the castle is in ruins.
The comics continuity does not establish when McDuck Castle was built, but it first appears (on the fictional timeline) in 946 when theSaxonslaid siege to it. For many centuries the castle served as the home of theclan chief.In 1675, the McDucks were run out of the castle due to the depredations of a "monstrousdevil dog"in Dismal Downs, later discovered to be a plot by the rival Clan Whiskerville.[3]At this time, many of the McDucks moved to the village of MacDuich and toGlasgow.Even after their departure, the clan still owned the castle and continued to pay the taxes by pooling their incomes. By 1885, only Fergus and Jake McDuck remain to pay the taxes, but their combined income is not enough, causingthe Crownto auction it off. Scrooge then buys the estate, allowing his family to reoccupy the castle. He also hires localdogfaceScottie McTerrier as caretaker.[4]Sometime after Scottie's death, Scrooge's sister Matilda becomes caretaker.[5]
In theDuckTalescontinuity, Castle McDuck was built by Scrooge's great-great grandfatherSilaswho incorporated the castle into an existingDruidstone circleto save on construction costs. This story would date the castle itself to about the 18th century. The Druids, seeking revenge on the McDucks for taking away their sacred meeting place, scared the clan away using trained phosphorescent hounds. Years later, Scrooge returns with Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby and uncovers the mystery. Scrooge befriends the Druids and partners with them to turn Castle McDuck into a tourist attraction. Scrooge plans to give a share of the profit to the Druids asreparationsfor desecrating their stone circle. The story is loosely based on the Barks story "Hound of the Whiskervilles", which was in turn loosely based onThe Hound of the Baskervilles.[6]In the2017DuckTalesseries,the castle is Clan McDuck's ancestral home, as in the comics, and is protected by the spirits of the McDuck ancestors buried there. Scrooge used part of his fortune to purchase and restore the castle as a home for his parents, but because he used discount druid stones, his parents were cursed with immortality and bound to the castle, which appears only once every five years.[7]
The castle appears in the Carl Barks storiesThe Old Castle's Secret(1948) andHound of the Whiskervilles(1960) and in the Don Rosa storiesThe Last of the Clan McDuck(1992),The New Laird of Castle McDuck(1993),The Billionaire of Dismal Downs(1993) andThe Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home(2004). Other comic book authors have also used the castle, such as Andrew Galton, Dave Angus, andVicarinThe Crying Monster(1982). In the 1987 TV seriesDuckTales,McDuck Castle appears in the episode"The Curse of Castle McDuck".In the2017DuckTalesseries,the castle is the setting of the episodes"The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!"and"The Fight for Castle McDuck!"
Tartan of Clan McDuck
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3a/McDuck_tartan.png/220px-McDuck_tartan.png)
The fictional McDucktartanfirst appears in 1960 inHound of the Whiskervilles.However, the coloring of the tartan was not Barks' decision but that ofcoloristsworking forDell Comics,which first published the story; subsequent publications showed the tartan having differing colors. When Don Rosa decided to include the tartan in his stories, he used the original coloring of green and orange. Nevertheless, some European publications have still shown variations in Rosa's color scheme.[8](See Sir Roast McDuck'stam o' shantercap in the illustration at the top of the page, which was first published in France.)[9]The old clansmen seen onDuckTaleswear a green and orange tartan, but of a slightly different design from that of the comics.
Ancient McDucks
[edit]Scrooge Shah and Prince Donduk
[edit]Scrooge Shahwas the last king of Sagbad and the earliest known ancestor of Scrooge McDuck. A young King Khan Khan (2050 BC-1967 BC) sacked the city of Sagbad in 2033 BC, but Scrooge Shah andPrince Donduk,his heir apparent, managed to escape. Khan Khan lost their tracks, but would much later locate their distant descendants. Scrooge Shah features in the story "King Scrooge the First" (1967) byCarl BarksandTony Strobl.
Postclassical McDucks
[edit]Eider McDuck
[edit]Sir Eider McDuck(880-946; from earlier Eider MacDuich) was thechiefof Clan McDuck during anAnglo-Saxoninvasion in 946 (despite England and Scotland signing a peace treaty in 945). Eider was killed during the Anglo-Saxons'siegeof McDuck Castle after hisserfsabandoned him. He had refused to buy them arrows because they were too expensive, and only paid his serfs, collectively, 30 copper pieces an hour.[10][11]Eider McDuck is first mentioned in Barks'The Old Castle's Secret(1948).
Friar Juicy McDuck(910-971) andSir Smokt McDuck(b. 931) are buried in the McDuck cemetery as seen in the Carl Barks paintingDubious Doings at Dismal Downs.
Eider makes a cameo appearance in the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", both as a statue in front of the titular Castle McDuck and as a ghost.
Quackly McDuck
[edit]Sir Quackly McDuck(1010-1057; from earlier Quackly MacDuich) was clan chief whenKing Macbethwas killed in 1057. That same year, Macbeth offered Quackly a treasure chest in exchange for his support in the ongoing war for the throne. Quackly agreed and served the king during the war, but became obsessed with protecting the treasure, eventually trapping himself inside the castle walls with it. Quackly and his treasure became a McDuck legend, and it is believed that his ghost continues to protect the treasure and the castle.[11]
In 1877, Quackly's ghost saves a young Scrooge McDuck from the Whiskervilles of Dismal Downs. Without revealing his true identity, he suggests to Scrooge that he travel to America and work for his Uncle Pothole, thus serving as the catalyst for all of Scrooge's adventures. In 1885, Quackly again tries to save Scrooge, but his action unintentionally brings about Scrooge's temporary death. In heaven, Quackly is reprimanded by his relatives for interfering in earthly events.[10][12]Quackly McDuck is first mentioned inThe Old Castle's Secret(1948) by Carl Barks, and first appears inThe Last of the Clan McDuck(1994) by Don Rosa.
Murdoch McDuck
[edit]Sir Murdoch McDuck(?-1066; from earlier Murdoch MacDuich) was a businessman who patented the longbow. Most notably in 1066, when the Normans invaded England, he had the latter sign a contract with him so they would have enough longbows to fight off the invaders. However, they did not have enough arrows as Sir Murdoch charged extra for them. He is also the last of the Dark Ages McDucks and the one who modernized their family name "MacDuich" to the more familiar "McDuck". He only appears in the unfinished sketch-only story "The History of the Clan McDuck" (written and drawn approx. in 1992 by Don Rosa, but not released until December 2011), which was meant to serve as a prologue to "The Last of the Clan McDuck" before it was scrapped.
In the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", Downy McDuck relates Murdoch's history (which remains intact) toHuey, Dewey, and Louie Duck,andWebby Vanderquack.His longbow is later used as a clue that the boys use to uncover the mystery behind their mother,Della's, disappearance.
Stuft McDuck
[edit]Sir Stuft McDuck(1110-1175) was a successful chief of Clan McDuck who oversaw a period of prosperity.[10]
Roast McDuck
[edit]Sir Roast McDuck(1159-1205) succeeded his father, Stuft McDuck, as clan chief, while Clan McDuck was one of the richest clans in Scotland. However, in 1189, Roast offered much of the clan's wealth to the king of Scotland,William the Lion,after William asked for his help in paying tribute toRichard I of England.This act of patriotic generosity led to financial ruin for the clan. Aside from this imprudence, Roast is primarily remembered for his gluttony. In 1205, he raided the king's pantry and ate himself to death. Roast's memorial suit of armor displayed in Castle McDuck holds a knife and fork in its hands.[11][12]The character is first mentioned inThe Old Castle's Secret(1948) by Carl Barks. He has a small speaking role inThe Last of the Clan McDuck(1994), but makes his first appearance inThe New Laird of Castle McDuck.
His ghost makes a cameo appearance in the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!"
Swamphole McDuck
[edit]Sir Swamphole McDuck(1190-1260)[13]succeeded his father, Roast McDuck, as clan chief and inherited its financial problems. In 1220, Swamphole sealed the dungeon of Castle McDuck, which he claimed was an attempt to decrease maintenance costs. He did, however, create secret passageways in the castle leading to the dungeons. (These passageways would later be useful during subsequent sieges.) After his death in 1260, Swamphole was not buried in the clan cemetery; rather, his skeleton was placed inside his memorial suit of armor, which was placed in Castle McDuck. Swamphole McDuck is first mentioned inThe Old Castle's Secretby Carl Barks.[11]InThe Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home(2004) by Don Rosa, it is revealed that Swamphole sealed the dungeons not to reduce maintenance costs, but to conceal a treasure.
In the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", he is stated to be a treasure hunter (like Scrooge) who constructed secret passageways underneath Castle McDuck and let loose a demon dog to protect his treasure. His ghost later appears to ward off said demon dog alongside the ghosts of several of his family members.
Donald McDuck
[edit]Sir Donald McDuck,nicknamed "Black Donald"because of his foul temper, is said to have inventedgolf,thehammer throw,and thecaber tossin 1440. His temper while playing golf resulted inJames II of Scotlandoutlawing the sport. Black Donald is mentioned in "The History of the Clan McDuck" by Don Rosa.
In the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode "The Missing Links of Moorshire!", Scrooge McDuck relates the story of how "Black Donald" McDuck invented golf and subsequently got it banned due to his temper to Dewey, Louie, and Webby before participating in a golf tournament in Scotland.
Simon McDuck
[edit]Sir Simon McDuck(1437-1509) was the treasurer of theKnights Templarand hid their treasure beneath McDuck Castle. He is mentioned inThe Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home(2004) by Don Rosa.
In the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck", Scrooge McDuck states Simon was the "accountant" to the Knights Templar who had stolen and hidden their treasure somewhere underneath Castle McDuck, and he had returned to his father Fergus to reluctantly ask for his help in finding it since he knows where it is. His ghost appears later in the episode to stop a ghost hound from attacking Scrooge's grandnephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie.
Early modern McDucks
[edit]Malcolm McDuck
[edit]Malcolm "Matey" McDuck(1530-1564?) was a McDuck relative who settled inEnglandand is suggested to be a previous incarnation of Scrooge McDuck. Malcolm served in theEnglish Navy,and in 1563 he became first mate of the frigate HMSFalcon Rover,serving under Captain Loyal Hawk. TheFalcon Roverraided Spanish targets in theCaribbean Seabetween 1563 and 1564. Also serving on theFalcon Roverwas the boatswain,Pintail Duck,whose descendant,Quackmore Duck,would marry Malcolm's descendant,Hortense McDuck.The two were the parents of twinsDonaldandDella Duck.
Malcolm is said to have lost his life on 9 December 1564 when the Spanish fleet sank HMSFalcon Rover.However, in 1579, Malcolm was also said to have commanded the newly founded Fort Drakeborough, an establishment that in 1818 was taken over byCornelius Cootand renamed Fort Duckburg.[14]Malcolm first appears in "Back to Long Ago!" (1956) by Carl Barks.
He is mentioned on Webby Vanderquack's family chart in the2017DuckTalesseries.
Locksley McDuck
[edit]Locksley McDuckwas an 18th-century McDuck relative. Sometime after 1707, he became an associate of Scottish outlawRob Roy MacGregorwho is characterized as anoble thiefwho would "rob from the rich to give to the poor". Locksley's alliance with MacGregor would come to an end after Locksley was unable to "give to the poor" after having robbed the rich. He is mentioned inThe History of The Clan McDuckby Don Rosa. His name is derived from the English village ofLoxley,the traditional birthplace ofRobin Hood.
Silas McDuck
[edit]Silas McDuck was a member of Clan McDuck and Scrooge's great-great-grandfather. He was very wealthy and built Castle McDuck for his large family to live in. Despite the ground being cursed by druids, Silas finished the constructions and the McDucks moved in, only to be scared away by the frightening Hound of Castle McDuck. Spending what little he had left from erecting the castle, Silas built Cottage MeDuck, where the family lived in poverty until Scrooge left for America.
Hugh McDuck
[edit]Captain Hugh "Seafoam" McDuck(1710-1776) was a McDuck relative who settled inGlasgowin 1727, as the clan had been driven from their ancestral home of Dismal Downs in 1675. Hugh turned to the sea for a living and became a successful merchant. He obtained his own ship, theGolden Goose,and became known by the nickname "Seafoam".
In 1753, Seafoam McDuck signed a contract withSwindle McSueto deliver a cargo ofhorseradishtoJamaica.But McSue sabotaged theGolden Gooseand the ship sank before reaching Jamaica. Upon returning to Scotland, Seafoam McDuck learned that his contract with McSue contained fine print stating that if the shipment was not completed, McDuck would forfeit all his possessions to McSue. Seafoam escaped with nothing but the clothes on his back, a silver pocket watch, and the golden dentures in his mouth.[15]It is later presumed that Seafoam was involved in theAmerican Revolutionary Warand died in 1776. His descendant Quagmire McDuck inherited the silver pocket watch. Seafoam McDuck first appears inThe Horseradish Story(1953) by Carl Barks.
His ghost makes a cameo appearance in the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck".
Modern McDucks (1st generation)
[edit]Dingus McDuck
[edit]"Dirty" Dingus McDuck,was Scrooge's paternal grandfather. He worked as acoal miner,[16]married Molly Mallard, and had three sons – Angus, Fergus, and Jake. He appeared in Don Rosa's illustrated family tree, but has not appeared in any comic book stories. A 1960s story byBob GregoryandTony Stroblidentifies Scrooge's grandfather asTitus McDuck.
In the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck", Dingus is revealed to have had an antagonistic relationship with his son, Fergus (not unlike that of the latter and his son, Scrooge). In fact, knowing he would seek out Simon McDuck's treasure, he left his son a note telling him to work hard and not accept hand-outs inside a hidden chamber underneath Castle McDuck.
Molly Mallard
[edit]Molly McDuck(néeMallard) was the wife of Dingus McDuck, Scrooge's paternal grandmother, and the mother of Angus, Fergus, and Jake McDuck. Her first and only appearance was in an illustrated family tree created by Don Rosa; she has not appeared in any stories. Coincidentally, her maiden name is the same as the title character ofDarkwing Duck.
Her ghost makes a cameo appearance in the2017DuckTalesseries' episode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!"
Quagmire McDuck
[edit]Quagmire McDuckwas Dingus McDuck's brother and Scrooge McDuck's paternal great uncle. He inherited a silver watch from his ancestor Hugh "Seafoam" McDuck and passed it on to his nephew Fergus. After his death, Quagmire's estate remained unclaimed. Quagmire appears in the Carl Barks story "The Heirloom Watch" (1955).[17]
His ghost makes a cameo appearance in the2017DuckTalesseriesepisode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck".
Modern McDucks (2nd generation)
[edit]Angus "Pothole" McDuck
[edit]Angus "Pothole" McDuck(born 1829) is the first child of Dingus and Molly McDuck, and is Scrooge's paternal uncle. Angus was born inGlasgowin 1829.[10]He was first mentioned in "The Great Steamboat Race" by Carl Barks and later appeared in person in a handful of stories by Don Rosa.
Angus migrated to the United States during the late 1840s. In 1850 he was working as a cabin boy in theMississippi riverboatDrennan Whytewhen it sank. He was the only survivor.[18]He continued working on Mississippi riverboats and he had obtained his own by 1861, namedCotton Queen.Around the time of theAmerican Civil War(1861–1865) he became quite successful as a river boater. Soon after the end of the war in 1865 he and fellow river boaterPorker Hoggbecame the co-owners of Cornpone Gables, aSouthern plantationthat had gone bankrupt. The two were unable to settle their differences and they decided to have a riverboat race in 1870 to decide who would be the owner. Both riverboats sank. Porker had two more riverboats but Angus spent the next ten years as a professional card player.
In 1880, in a poker game with Porker, Angus won the rights to one of his rival's riverboats, namedDilly Dollar.Porker soon lost his other riverboat to Blackheart Beagle and his sons, the first generation of theBeagle Boys,a family of outlaws, and retired. Angus on the other hand hired his nephewScrooge McDuckand a penniless inventor namedRatchet Gearlooseas his crew. Business wasn't going well and Angus decided to retire in 1882. He left his riverboat to his nephew and settled down inNew Orleans.[18]
He became the writer of a series ofdime novelsunder the titleThe Master of Mississippi,based on a highly exaggerated description of his life. His dime novels became very popular and to have more material to add he occasionally traveled through the country.[19]In the story "The Vigilante of Pizen Bluff" by Don Rosa, he is seen appearing atBuffalo Bill's Wild West. After the show's money is stolen by theDalton Gang,Angus rides out with Bill, Scrooge,P. T. Barnum,Annie Oakley,andGeronimoto stop the bandits.[19]
Angus' exact date of death is unknown.
In 1955, Porker's nephew, Horseshoe Hogg, and Scrooge McDuck would bring their uncles'steamboatsback to the surface to finish the race for Cornpone Gables. Scrooge won, only to learn that 85 years of disuse made the mansion so fragile that he accidentally destroyed it with a sneeze.
A character based on Angus named"Catfish" McDuckappears in the 1987DuckTalesepisode, "Once Upon a Dime", voiced byPeter Renaday,
Fergus McDuck
[edit]Fergus McDuck(1835–1902[20]) is the second child of Dingus and Molly McDuck and the father of Scrooge McDuck. As such he is a prominent character inThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.
He was born inGlasgowin 1835 to Dingus McDuck and Molly Mallard, who were both working as coal miners at the time. He spent most of his life as a mill worker.[10]
According to a story byWilliam Van Horn,Fergus at some point had a short marriage with an unidentified woman, with whom he had the sonRumpus McFowl.[21]He later married Downy O'Drake, his wife in Rosa's stories, who became the mother of three of his children – Scrooge, Matilda, and Hortense.
The rest of Fergus' biography is shown inThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.In 1877 he encouraged his son to work to have his own money. Scrooge's obvious intelligence, skill at hard work and ambition made his father believe that Scrooge would be able to restore Clan McDuck to its former glory.[12]In the storyOf Ducks, Dimes, and Destinies,it is revealed that Scrooge's Number One Dime came from Fergus, who gave it to the man who used it to pay Scrooge for shining his shoes.
In 1885 the Clan's hereditary lands would have been seized due to Fergus' inability to pay his taxes. But Scrooge spent his savings at the time ($10,000) to pay the taxes and become the new owner of their lands.[22]While Scrooge was away, Fergus and his family moved back to Castle McDuck, abandoned for centuries in Dismal Downs. The family continued to work to pay for the taxes, and Scrooge sent them money he earned while traveling. Fergus became a widower in 1897.
Scrooge became rich in theKlondikeand returned to Scotland in 1902 as a billionaire. Scrooge's intention was originally to settle in Dismal Downs, but he quickly changed his mind and decided to settle in the United States. He wanted to take his family with him. His sisters accepted, but Fergus decided to stay. He died during the night, aged 72, and was re-united with his wife Downy and the rest of the McDuck Clan as his three children left Scotland.[20]
InDon Rosa'sThe Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home,it's revealed that Fergus tried to find theKnights Templartreasure hidden in the castle McDuck by one of his ancestors, a Knight himself. Even though Fergus decided not to tell Scrooge about the treasure, he learns about it through other ways and, likeMatilda McDuck,thinks Fergus kept the secret from him because he disapproved of Scrooge. In the middle of their way to the treasure, Scrooge, Matilda and Scrooge's nephews find a letter from Fergus, who believed Scrooge would eventually find it, revealing the reason he hid the secret from Scrooge is that Scrooge would feel better building his own fortune instead of inheriting one.[23]
Fergus appears in the classic 1987DuckTalesepisode, "Once Upon a Dime", which explores Scrooge's history. Here he is referred to as "McPapa." Fergus' name and image are also present in the 2017DuckTalesseries, which draws heavily from the comics. He later appears in the episode "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", having survived to the present day due to Scrooge rebuilding Castle McDuck using magic stones that granted his parents immortality. Scrooge and Fergus' relationship is initially tense, with the latter expressing apparent disapproval of the former; though in reality, he was upset because Scrooge had not been a part of his life. They later reconcile after Fergus reveals he was the one who gave Scrooge his Number One Dime, via Burt the Ditch Digger, in order to give him the gift of "self-reliance" since he was unable to afford a proper gift for him.Alan Young,who voiced Scrooge in the original series, was meant to provide Fergus's voice, but passed away before he could record any dialogue[24]and the role went toGraham McTavish.
In the 1993NESgameDuckTales 2,Scrooge and his nephews found a piece of a treasure map that led to the lost treasure of a character named Fergus McDuck. However, this Fergus is not Scrooge's father but Scrooge's great-great-uncle.
Downy O'Drake
[edit]Downy McDuck(néeO'Drake;1840–1897) is Scrooge McDuck's mother. She was created by Don Rosa and first appears inThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.She is ofIrishorigin and was born in 1840.[20]
She was a very devotedhousewifeand mother. She settled in Castle McDuck at Dismal Downs, Clan McDuck's old castle, along with her family in 1885. She died in 1897,[20]and was buried in the McDucks' cemetery.[20]She later appeared to her husband Fergus at his own passing, and together they joined various McDuck ancestors.
Downy's image and name are also present in the 2017 incarnation ofDuckTales,usually alongside those of her husband. Alongside Fergus, she makes a physical appearance in the episode, "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", voiced byAshley Jensen.
Jake McDuck
[edit]Jake McDuck(1832–?) is Scrooge McDuck's uncle. He was mentioned in the story "A Christmas for Shacktown"(1952) byCarl Barks,in whichDonald Duckdresses up as Jake in an attempt to trick Scrooge into giving money to charity.
The character was later used byDon Rosa,and appears in three of twelve original chapters of Rosa'sThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.He lived in the same house as his brotherFergus McDuckand helped Fergus and his wifeDowny O'Draketo raise their children.[12]He settled in McDuck castle along with his brother in 1885.[22]However, it appears that by 1902, Jake was no longer living there.
According to Rosa's sketches and timelines, Jake was born in 1832[10]tocoalminersDingus McDuckandMolly Mallard,and grew up to become a stockyard hand in Glasgow. His date of death is unknown, but it appears that both Scrooge and Donald believed him to be alive in 1952.
Modern McDucks (3rd generation)
[edit]Scrooge McDuck
[edit]Scrooge McDuck(1867, according to Don Rosa) is the first child of Fergus and Downy McDuck and is the protagonist of most stories involving the Clan McDuck. Unlike his two younger sisters, he remains unmarried, but in "The Last Adventure!" of the DuckTales series, Webby is revealed to actually be Scrooge's daughter via cloning and her original F.O.W.L. given name is April. This is in a reboot/alternate universe. In the original Webby and April are two separate characters and neither are related to Scrooge. Also, he comes to maintain close relationships with his nephewDonald Duckand his grandnephewsHuey, Dewey, and Louie Duck.
Matilda McDuck
[edit]Matilda McDuck(born 1871) is one ofScrooge McDuck's two younger sisters, the maternal aunt of his niece and nephew,Donald DuckandDella Duckand the maternal grandaunt of Huey, Dewey, and Louie. She was first mentioned in Carl Barks' 1950s sketch for aDuck familytree, where she was shown to have adoptedGladstone Gander.[25]The Matilda McDuck character was dropped in Barks' 1991 Duck Family Tree sketch (where Gladstone Gander is the biological grandson ofGrandma Duckand not related to Scrooge), butDon Rosapicked up the name, and used Matilda McDuck as a prominent character inThe Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.
Matilda McDuck was born inGlasgow,Scotland, in 1871 toFergus McDuckandDowny O'Drake.[10]She is the younger sister of Scrooge McDuck. She has a younger sister named Hortense.
In contrast to Scrooge and Hortense's fiery tempers, she usually had a calm demeanor. In 1902 Scrooge returned to Scotland and took both of his younger sisters with him to go to America.[20]When he established his base inDuckburg,Calisota,United States he left Matilda and Hortense to run his empire from 1902 to 1930. In the meantime he traveled the world expanding his financial empire. In 1930, a conflict with Scrooge ended all relationships between him and his family, and his younger sisters are believed to have left Duckburg.[26]
In the storyThe Old Castle's Other Secret or A Letter from Home(2004), Don Rosa used Matilda McDuck in a non-Life and Timesstory for the first time. In this story, it is shown that she was hired by her nephewDonald Duck(son of Hortense) to tend the McDuck castle in Scotland. The story shows the reconciliation between Matilda and Scrooge. It is suggested that Donald deliberately set them up for a reunion. Unfortunately, he did not get the thanks he expected until Scrooge admitted his shameful actions and regrets. This is the first timeHuey, Dewey, and Louiemet their maternal great aunt. In that story, Scrooge returns toMcDuck Castlefor another treasure and learns from Matilda that his family already knew about the treasure but their father Fergus decided not to tell Scrooge about it. Both Scrooge and Matilda thought that was because of Fergus' disapproval of Scrooge's greedy ways but after finding a letter on the way for the treasure (hence the other title "A Letter from Home" ) they learn Fergus's real motive was that he thought Scrooge would feel better building his own fortune instead of simply inheriting one.
Matilda, while trying to leave the castle, mentions Hortense. However, in the commentary in the American printing of the story, Don Rosa states that he was prevented from using Hortense because he would have had to explain why she had abandoned her family. So Hortense's fate remains a mystery. In the notes to the Danish publication of the story (Hall of Fame - Don Rosa Book 10), it is stated that the publisher decided that Hortense was "officially dead".
Matilda is usually drawn with a flower on her hat, which loses a petal in each panel in which she appears.
Don Rosa has suggested that Matilda McDuck could have married the well-known Disney characterLudwig Von Drake.[27]
A picture of Matilda appears in the2017 DuckTales seriespilot episode, "Woo-oo!", as part of Webby's research on Scrooge's family. She later appears in person in the episode "The Fight for Castle McDuck!", voiced byMichelle Gomez.
Hortense McDuck
[edit]Hortense Duck(néeMcDuck;b. 1876) was introduced as a relatively well-connected member of her family. A daughter-in-law of Humperdink Duck andElvira Duck,a younger sister to Matilda McDuck andScrooge McDuck,wife toQuackmore Duck,sister-in-law ofGoostave GanderandDaphne Duck,aunt toGladstone Gander,mother ofDella DuckandDonald Duck,and finally maternal grandmother ofHuey, Dewey, and Louie.
Hortense was born in 1876 inGlasgow,Scotland as the youngest child of Fergus McDuck and Downy O'Drake. In Barks' tree, her oldest brother wasScrooge McDuckand her older sister Matilda McDuck. Some non-Barks writers gave Scrooge two half-brothers, Rumpus McFowl and Gideon McDuck, though these do not appear in Barks' conception of the family. De' Paperoni is a twin of Scrooge in a story. Jake McDuck, her paternal uncle, was also living with them.
Hortense was born in aworking classfamily living in relative poverty. In 1877 her ten-year-old brother Scrooge started working as a shoe polisher in an effort to help support his family. At the time Hortense was merely an infant sucking on her thumb. She observed from a distance with her father and sister while her brother earned thenumber one dime.Scrooge would spend some of his leisure time with his younger sisters, and occasionally repaired theirdolls.Otherwise Hortense spent most of her time clinging to her older sister.
By 1880, Scrooge came to realize that his earnings were not enough despite his hard work and efforts. He emigrated to the United States in hopes of earning his own fortune. He was hired as acabin boyon a merchant ship heading toNew Orleans.Scrooge noted that Hortense's "Bye, Scroogey" were her first spoken words. Before that, all she could say was "glxblt".
From an early age it was obvious Hortense had a fairly nasty temper combined with considerable strength, and on at least one occasion (in The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, Chapter 10) she has been called a spitfire. In 1882, Scrooge was hired as acowboybyMurdo MacKenzie.To do this he had to ride Widow Maker, a mare who had already managed to dispose of five other cowboys. Scrooge soon managed to become her rider although he never really managed to tame her. He renamed the horseHortenseafter his spirited six-year-old sister. The latter found this idea unflattering at best.
In 1885, the Clan McDuck's hereditary lands were in danger of being seized due to her father being unable to pay taxes. The lands also included Dismal Downs, the Clan's castle which had been abandoned since 1675. The Whiskervilles, traditional enemies of the McDucks since the 15th century, planned to gain ownership of the lands and were already trying to plunder the castle and its graveyard in search of old relics and treasure. Fergus and Jake guarded the Castle in order to stop them. Nine-year-old Hortense offered to help them and proved more effective in conflict than either of the elder McDucks. The Whiskervilles came to fear her.
In 1902 Scrooge McDuck returned to Scotland to fetch Hortense and their sister Matilda McDuck. When Scrooge establishedDuckburg,Calisotaas his home base he started journeying the world trying to expand his financial empire. One of her proudest moments was when she single-handedly caused the entireUS militaryto flee Killmotor Hill armed only with a broom and her bad temper, much to the shame of the current president,Theodore Roosevelt,and the fear of the soldiers. From 1902 until 1930, she and Matilda ran Scrooge's empire from his home base while he was away. During these years Hortense met her boyfriend, Quackmore Duck, whom she married in 1920. Later the same year she gave birth to twins. Her son was named Donald Duck and her daughter Della Duck. Of the two only Donald inherited his mother's temper. Afight with Scrooge in 1930ended all relationships between Scrooge and his family and she retired.
Scrooge may have claimed that he is the last McDuck, as he is the only male left. Hortense and Matilda changed their names to Duck after marriage, so, technically, Scrooge is the last McDuck.
Hortense is mentioned and pictured in theDuckTales2017 premier "Woo-oo!", whereWebby Vanderquackcites her as a connecting link between the triplets and Scrooge.
Rumpus McFowl
[edit]Rumpus McFowlwas created byWilliam Van Hornand introduced as a lazy and greedy cousin ofScrooge McDuck.It was soon revealed that he was in fact Scrooge's half-brother, born during his mother's brief marriage to Fergus McDuck.
Rumpus McFowl is a tall, obese duck who wears a green coat and a blackbowler hat.He is not ashamed to take advantage of Scrooge McDuck's money at every chance he gets, citing his relationship to Scrooge as the reason. He has never been shown to do any work. Scrooge views Rumpus as a useless good-for-nothing and tries his best to get rid of his company.
Gideon McDuck
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f3/GideonMcDuck.png/220px-GideonMcDuck.png)
Gideon McDuck(Gedeone de' Paperoniin original Italian) isScrooge McDuck's moralistic brother, and is a recurring character in Italian comic stories; in those stories, Gideon is the editor of thenewspaper"The County Conscience",[28]the most credible newspaper inDuckburg.The newspaper is originally known as "Il Grillo Parlante", which is the Italian name of thePinocchiocharacterThe Talking Cricketand its Disney versionJiminy Cricket;a statue of Jiminy is therefore present in Gideon's office. Gideon also has an antagonistic relationship with his brother Scrooge.
The character was created byRomano Scarpa,and first appeared in the story "Paperino e i gamberi in salmì" (1956).[28]The character's debut story is the only one that was printed in the United States, as it was published in 2015 under the title "Shellfish Motives".
Gideon's existence is inconsistent with a statement made inCarl Barks's "The Old Castle's Secret".[11]In this story, Scrooge states that he is the last ofthe Clan McDuck,which would mean that he couldn't have a living sibling. However, Gideon is not the only living relative of Scrooge to carry the surname "McDuck", and therefore cause the same inconsistency with Barks's story; others include his sister Matilda and first cousin Douglas. In the American translation of "Shellfish Motives" Gideon is said to be younger than Scrooge, while the original version doesn't specify which one of them is younger.
Douglas McDuck
[edit]Douglas McDuckis a cousin of Scrooge who has appeared in several Danish Disney comic stories. He looks like Scrooge not only in appearance but also in temperament. He is so incredibly stingy that he considers Scrooge a spendthrift, often criticizing a frustrated Scrooge for not being "McDuck-like" enough. Douglas is, however, hopeless at finding and identifying gold; he generally lives a rustic life in mining country, locating only fool's gold and earning a modest living. In the story "Smarter Than The Toughies",Douglas was portrayed as being the uncle of Whitewater Duck.
Moocher McDuck
[edit]Moocher McDuckis the beggar cousin of Scrooge who appeared for the first time in the story "Too Many McDucks"byTony Strobl.Moocher's look is very similar to Scrooge's, except for the fact that he wears tattered clothes, but unlike his very rich cousin, Moocher is a sweetheart. He was used in some Brazilian comic stories in the 1970s.
Cyril McDuck
[edit]Cyril McDuckis the banished cousin of Scrooge, who appeared in the story The Search for Cyril, by Bob Gregory, where he failed to pass a “stinginess test” given to him by Dingus McDuck (called Titus McDuck), where each child of Clan McDuck would be given money to save, however Cyril failed buying candy for some children, and was banished to the Scottish Highlands, where he became a goatherd. In the story Donald sees that Scrooge has a photo of every Clan McDuck member, except for Cyril, and Donald attempts to photograph him.
Other relatives
[edit]Duck family
[edit]TheDuck familyare Scrooge's American relatives and include his nephewDonald,nieceDellaand grandnephewsHuey, Dewey, and Louie.They are related through Hortense's marriage to Quackmore Duck, Donald's father.
Aunt Eider
[edit]Aunt Eideris the aunt of both Scrooge McDuck andJohn D. Rockerduck.The Italian story "La Stella di Burbank",[29]where she is portrayed as a myopic old woman who doesn't realize she needs to wear glasses, is presumably her first comic book appearance. But Aunt Eider appears wearing glasses in her next three comic book appearances.Dick Kinneywrote the last three comic stories where this character was used, and three famous cartoonists respectively drew those ones. Al Hubbard,Marco RotaandGiorgio Cavazzano.Neither of these stories was published in America. The story "Most Helpful Aunt Eider" is the only one where Aunt Eider doesn't meet her wealthy nephews. It's aJunior Woodchucksstory.[30]
Since there isn't any clue on how the tireless and slightly Boss y Aunt Eider could be the aunt of both Scrooge and Rockerduck in the comic stories with her, some fans of this universe have invented their own explanations for this fact. It really seems she never had a surname, so she has been connected to Scrooge's family through his paternal grandmother, Molly Mallard, who would be an aunt of Eider. This would make Eider aMallardtoo, but, of course, this is not a widely accepted explanation at all. According to this same invented explanation, Aunt Eider would be a sister of Rockerduck's mother.
Ludwig Von Drake
[edit]Ludwig Von Drakeis Donald Duck's uncle. Their exact relationship has only rarely been described. Don Rosa fans have speculated that Ludwig is married to Matilda McDuck, while the Disney company have portrayed him as a bachelor. Walt Disney stated Ludwig is Donald's father's brother.
Aunt Vera
[edit]Aunt Verais Scrooge McDuck and Rumpus McFowl's mutual aunt. She is only briefly mentioned, where she gave her nephew Rumpus information that informed him and Scrooge that they were half-brothers. She is also mentioned to be living, however the exact relationship to Scrooge and Clan McDuck is unknown.
