In the original English: Dorinda in D 97076 actually has that name, and is Grandma's "second cousin twice removed." "Darendorf" in D 99207 is Donald's "great-granduncle Cornelius" (apparently not Coot!). "Argus" in D 2001-126 is actually Argyle.
(Sadly, I don't have any more of these in English, but that's a few...)
Where in D 2000-121 is an aunt mentioned or shown? (As far as I can see, the story is all Donald, Gyro, and HDL...)
Thank you! "Grandma's second cousin twice removed"... the "twice removed" would mean either two generations younger or older than Grandma herself. Is the story clear on which one it is? Is Dorinda around Donald's age or is she long dead? ...Or did the writers not know what "twice removed" means and just make her Grandma's age?
Donald and Gladstone apparently have a great-grand-aunt in H 86130. Does anyone know if she has a name?
She doesn't have a name, she just leaves an inheritance.
Daisy apparently has an ancestor called Daniel Duck in D 9266. Does anyone know when he existed?
Daniël Duck existed at the same time as another character's great-great-great-greatgrandfather, who gifted Daniël a grandfather clock made by "Sigmund Cuckoovarius", according to the Dutch translation. Roundabouts 1700 would be my guess.
I basically just merged MacPatus with Mac Paperson and added an image of him and Grandma's grand-uncle Cirillo.
I've also removed Dim-Witty from the tree. I don't think he has ever been confirmed to be related to the Ducks. If anyone can provide some actual evidence to the contrary, I'll be glad to put him back in.
Grandma's second cousin twice removed Dorinda is still unplaced. Otherwise, all of the relatives I'm currently aware of have been represented on the tree somehow.
Say, is there any way to make the pictures on Inducks larger? I've found some of the relatives still missing pictures on their respective stories, including Dali, Kittie, both Egberts, and Klazien and the Trouwharts in color, but they're all much too small as is.

Which ones? can you send a URL as example?
I put the ones I found in this post earlier in the thread.
I've noticed that in your tree is absent the Paperone from Zio Paperone e la locandiera. He is an ancestor of the modern ducks, particularly Scrooge, and he lived in Venice in the XVIII century. So maybe you could place him as father of Papero Brontolon?
Looking through old stories I've found Zio Paperone va alla guerra, mentioning an ancestor of Scrooge, the so called Paperone G. de Paperoni (the G. stand for Geremia). He was called for military service in 1876, but for problems the letter never arrived until today. Considering that the center of the story revolves around Scrooge having the same name of of this character, except for the "Geremia" part, it should probably adapted as Scrooge G. mcDuck.
Of this Geremia we know that he is currently dead and should have served from the 20 june 1876 in the Seventh Cavalry of Dakota, lead by general Custer, who fought and was killed by the Sioux of Sitting Bull (of which the rival of Scrooge Billy Bull is descendant).
I've found some others relatives that I don't think are on the tree, or can be corrected.
One is Jellat de' Scalognati, a very distant relative of Gladstone who recently died and left to him a terrein around Duckburg as inheritance. From Zio Paperone e l'incentivo dell'eredità
From Zio Paperone e il castello del commodoro came "commodoro" de' Paperoni, who already is on your tree as Teobaldo mcDuck (I guess the name comes from one of the translations or successive reprints, because in the 1971 version he is only called "commodoro"). Most probably commodoro isn't his name, instead a title equivalent to commodore. A minor thing, but the image in the tree isn't the commodore, but Scrooge dressed as him. In the same story we also see Ermenegildo de' Paperoni, great explorer and a possible heir for the castle before Scrooge. He isn't explicitly mentioned as Scrooge's relative, but him being a possible heir make him probably related to the commodore at the same distance of Scrooge, and the same surname of Scrooge and the commodore imply him being the son of a brother of both the commodore and Scrooge father.
A character that, despite having the same surname of Scrooge is explicitely stated in-story not being related to him, is Desmond, only heir of Arpagone de' Paperoni, homonym of Scrooge's grandfather. This means that the (probably paternal, seen the same surname of the grandson) grandfather of Scrooge is called Arpagone de' Paperoni. He would probably be placed where Titus "Dingus" mcDuck is. Does this means that we have to conflate different characters like has been done for Roger Scrooge "Potluck" mcDuck (really an easy name, if you compress it a little bit more it becomes a series of i and l )? It's your tree, so yours is the choice.
someone in possess of this volume could please tell me the name of RKD's pirate ancestor in the Dutch translation of this story? -> info should be found at page 498
