I see that you have updated the tree. Nice. But I might have some other additions:
Daisy mentions her aunt Daphne in ZD 73-02-11. I didn't find any aunt of Daisy called Daphne on the tree. In the same story, also some other ancestors are seen or mentioned. I don't know if the Duchess of Duckshire is from after 1700, I am not a historian to deduce that. The others are definitely from much longer ago (and the one that Donald shows is probably not even a real ancestor). You can see a scan of the story on INDUCKS. I don't have a higher resolution one.
In H 2011-134, Donald mentions that he found a hat in the attic that he had previously inherited from "oudoom Snater McWoerd" (=great-uncle Snater McWoerd). Interestingly, McWoerd is the Dutch translation of McMallard/McMerganser from D 7156. Should that mean this great-uncle is related to those relatives?
Daisy has a cousin called Ko in H 25071. His portrait hangs in Daisy's house with the description "neef Ko" (= cousin Ko).
In H 26050 there is a portrait of uncle Kobus in Donald's house, with the description "ome Kobus" (= uncle Kobus).
So, I've been poring over every source mentioned and every one I could find on my own - I've managed to scrape together sources for MOST of the characters on the tree. I'm hoping that y'all can help me on the last stretch.
So, I went through line by line as it was the easiest way to organize them. You might notice one or two names not matching up - either the name is a holdover from a previous build that I used for identification purposes or the character pictured has a name that I used, again, for convenience. In most cases, I was relatively lax in regards to counting something as proven; if there was a scan provided, I was content in most cases to accept a source. The ones that are listed as [UNVERIFIED] were ones where I had nothing to go on in that regard; I had the INDUCKS link, but neither the INDUCKS scans nor the information provided gave any clear proof that the relevant character was from the story in question.
So, if anyone can confirm the situations around the characters with [UNVERIFIED], [SCAN NEEDED] etc, it would be much appreciated!

Very good work, Alquackskey! I wish I would have kept better track of the sources! I do apologize. I was under the impression that every relative was attached to an inducks-link to their stories when they were first mentioned in the thread. Alas, it appears not.
After a quick look through the list, there are a few I'm certain I can track down... others will be a bit more difficult. Some characters are hard to track down since they are given fan-translated names on the tree. This should be rectified, even if only Italian or Dutch or whatever names are available! I'll take a closer look in the near-future when I have more time on my hands.
I also noticed that a lot of image-links in this thread are currently broken, for example the Gearloose tree in the first post. I don't like that. I've tried to reupload another version, but that doesn't seem to work.

On the topic of names, there MIGHT be two more to add - I dismissed them, but it might be worth mentioning:
For 'Dwight Barbosa', he might be in W OS 995-04? It's been mentioned that the statue is of Dwight Duck, though I can't access the story to confirm that.
For 'Olle Duck', is it possible that it's supposed to be 'Nolle Duck'? He appears in the Danish version of I TL 567-B - I discounted the idea because you already have him pictured as 'Dick o'Drake', but it's possible there was some confusion? I ignored that idea for the most part but the names are similar enough here that I thought it was worth mentioning.
Just for the record, I didn't save examples of which, but I tended to primarily go on pictures - for example, the stories for 'Jim Damon McDuck' and 'Harold Rockerduck' both refer to the pictured characters, but, as far as I'm aware, the stories don't actually refer to them by these names.

If I am not mistaken, then Dwight is a cousin of Donald from YD 68-09-23. Dwight's brothers on the tree and many other relatives whose names start with a D are also from that strip. The strip does not give a family name. So to attach them as children of Joao Barbosa is, I assume, a personal choice and not based on any in story evidence.
A complete list of sources for everyone on the tree would indeed be a good idea. It can also avoid some duplications or accidental misplacements.
On another note, I have some more potential additions/changes for the tree:
I just watched the DuckTales episode Hotel Strangeduck, in which Ludwing von Strangeduck appears. He is included in the tree as “Ludwig von Strangeduck” but he is actually called “Ludwing von Strangeduck” in the episode. However, I was wondering why he is actually in the tree at all. In the tree, he his related to the McDucks, but I did not find any indication for this in the episode. The only thing I could find is that he is probably related to a certain “H.G. Duck”, who lived from 1894 to 1942, since the grave of H.G. Duck is at the graveyard of the castle. So, Ludwing might be related to the rest of the Duck family, but the episode does not state how. Anyway, if you want to include Ludwing von Strangeduck, you should also include his sister Featherika von Strangeduck, who also appears in the episode.
Some more relatives that I found that are not yet on the tree I think:
Neeltje Geertruida is a second cousin (Dutch: achternicht) of Grandma Duck in H 98005. She is just mentioned by Grandma Duck and not seen. She is apparently still alive, because Grandma Duck said that she talked with her yesterday.
Betsie is a niece of Grandma Duck H 2010-349. Donald says that Grandma Duck wants to go for a few days to her niece Betsie in Kwaaksterheide, so Donald needs to take care of the farm.

Excellent, thank you for this! I had a feeling that that strip would be relevant - since my last comment, I was actually trying to find it! Several of the names used for the characters that appear in 'The Overnight Hero' go by the names given in the Brazilian version, so I ignored the English one. Should have known that would be a bad idea!
I'll add them to the index!

alquackskey , you are much braver than me. I had given up on ever knowing the source of every character in LP's tree. Thank you for your hard work in putting together that list!

Woah. I had no idea that the "D" cousins, uncles, and aunts came from a Taliaferro strip. It looks like Bob Karp decided independently of Carl Barks to give Donald an aunt named "Daphne." Ever since its release, my headcanon for Gladstone Gander's parents has been based on the wonderful fanfiction comic The White Balloon by Sarah Jolley, which, without spoiling too much, depicts Goosetave and Daphne as having had a wholesome relationship and being deceased in the present. However, there is now an official story depicting Goosetave as being alive in the present-day (H 2021-263), though I haven't been able to read it as it doesn't appear to yet be available in English. I wonder if that story mentioned anything about the whereabouts of Aunt Daphne. If it didn't, then it could be that Goosetave and Daphne are a still living divorced couple, with Daphne remarrying to the Uncle Denton mentioned in YD 68-09-23? That totally upends my entire headcanon about Gladstone's childhood, but it seems to work better with "official" evidence. Still love The White Balloon, though. I guess it's still simpler to just conflate Barks and Rosa's Daphne with Bob Karp's Daphne, with Denton being her current husband and Dan, Derrick, and Douglas being either their children together or the children of one of them from a previous marriage. This would make Dan, Derrick, and Douglas the names of Gladstone's brothers, half-brothers, or stepbrothers, depending on how the exact relationships work.
If this theory that Goosetave and Daphne are divorced in the present-day is true, then I may have an idea for a remarriage for Goosetave. Ever since Carl Barks's first personal Duck family tree, there have been attempts to make Gladstone an adopted son of Matilda McDuck. I assume that this is to explain why Gladstone is considered a potential heir of Scrooge's. However, this does not square with Race to the South Seas, where Gladstone arrogantly describes Scrooge as his "mother's brother's brother-in-law." If Scrooge was his adopted mother's brother, then surely he would have used that relationship in his boasting! Could it be that Gladstone gained adopted kinship to Scrooge after this story, perhaps through a marriage between Goosetave and Matilda? I know that this does not work with your tree, LP , which has Matilda has the wife of Ludwig von Drake, but it does restore the Goosetave-Matilda marriage that was in Barks's original tree. I'm not a big fan of the Ludwig and Matilda pairing, but since Goosetave is not as well established of a character, I would be a bit more open to pairing him with her.
As for the other relatives in this strip (Uncle Dave, Aunt Dora, Cousins Dawn, Dick, and Dexter, and cousins Dudley, Duncan, Dwight, Dominic, and Dennis), I personally would identify them with some of the unnamed relatives seen in The Overnight Hero. "Dick" could indeed be the detective "Dicky Drake" from that story.
No matter what I say or do, know that Jesus loves you.

These are indeed all from D 7296. They are all family members from Donald's uncle Douglas and appear in the last panel of that story. The story does not state their exact relationship, but they can be assumed to be his wife/children/grand-children/their partners/etc.
Petunia Van Duck: H 89136 (Only Appearance) [SCAN NEEDED]
A scan of Petunia does not exist. She is only mentioned in H 89136. She does not appear in the story. I think that might be the case for some other relatives which you gave the designation [SCAN NEEDED], but I cannot check those stories now.
Duílio is one of those unnamed relatives from The Overnight Hero that was given a name by Maurice based on the Brazilian translation of YD 68-09-23. At least, in that translation the name Duílio appears. I don't have The Overnight Hero here to check if the scan comes from that story, but if that is the case, his name can better be changed to one of the English names from YD 68-09-23.
Fatso is a cousin of Scrooge, mentioned by Scrooge in W WDC 298-01. He is not confirmed to be a McDuck, but that is a possibility.
Ben is an uncle of Daisy, mentioned by her in D 2010-072, when Daisy is preparing for her wedding.
Wilhelmina is a cousin of Grandma Duck in D 88113. At least, that is her name in the Dutch translation. She may have a different name in the original script.
Tom Duck is I think Tom Paper, a cousin of Donald's grandfather in I TL 582-A. Gubert is a great-uncle of Gladstone mentioned in I TL 337-B. I don't know if it is his original name.
Unnamed Duck (Line 5, Square 59) Gregor McDuck [This duck is between Angus McDuck and Paperin Parodi]
The unnamed Duck is seen in the same story as Angus McDuck (D 7048). She can be assumed to be his wife. Gregor McDuck should be from D 4779, but I cannot confirm if his name is really Gregor McDuck in the original script.
Unnamed Duck (Line 7, Square 8) [This duck is below Dukker, Patagão and Hortensia] ? Von Pattus Unnamed Duck (Line 7, Square 17) [This duck is beside Crockett Duck]
The unnamed Duck from square 8 is Grandma's great-grandmother from I TL 1677-B. Von Pattus is Ludwig's great-grandfather from B 810003. The unnamed Duck from square 17 is Nonna Papera ("Grandma Duck") from I TL 683-A.
Ebenezer McDuck Unnamed Duck (Line 9, Square 20) [This duck is between Hamish McDuck and Drake McDuck]
Ebenezer McDuck is I think Old Ebeneeza from S 67019 The unnamed duck is an ancestor from D 7236. I think he should have a name in the story, but I don't know which one.

Thank you so much, this is a major help! I've made adjustments for most of them - the index has now been updated, as has the verification/missing list. There were a few, though, that I wasn't sure about:
For Unnamed Duck (Line 3, Square 39), I left it as being uncertain for now, just to be safe.
For Dora (Line 3, Square 49), the strip mentioned is already on the tree - for a different Dora. There are four Doras on the tree, which has been very confusing - if you think that I should swap the Dora that's currently labelled with the strip in question, I'd be willing to rethink things!
Tom Duck I marked with the source listed, but as [UNVERIFIED] - again, just to lean on the safe side.
Zebedeus Duck is the last character causing confusion; there are two Zebedeus Ducks on the tree. Since you say that Zebedeus is a great great uncle, that would put him as the earlier one, who is currently marked with the above-mentioned strip. I'm not sure where the idea of there being a second Zebedeus came from, but I'm rolling with it currently.
On the note of characters with [SCAN NEEDED], you're most likely right; they do seem like characters that were only mentioned. The reason that I have them marked as [SCAN NEEDED] is because of the layout of the tree - if a character's space is entirely blank, I took it as being the case that there's no information on the character. Even if they're highly likely to be mentioned rather than shown, I marked them as needing a scan just to be on the safe side.
Thank you again for your help! You've put us much closer to having them all!

I love hearing about bizarre/obscure Disney works - recommendations welcome!

Ah, I missed the Dora that is the sister from Fethry. But after some thinking, I have an idea where the extra Dora comes from. But to be sure, let's sumarize all Dora's: 1. Dora Duck, in between Drunella and Agatha. This should be Daisy's aunt Dora from D 99218. 2. The Dora that is the wife of Dave. This should be Donald's aunt Dora from YD 68-09-23, in which also uncle Dave is mentioned. 3. Dora Duck as Duncan's mother. You identified her as Donald's cousin from YD 38-08-12. And there are also other fan theories on the internet that Fethry's sister and Ducan's mother is called Dora. I believe someone ever suggested that it could also be the same Dora as the one from the Chit-Chat Society. So I think that would be fine to have Donald's cousin Dora there. 4. The currently unidentified Dora that is the wife of Décio.
The solution to the problem is that Décio himself should not be on the tree at all. His picture is from the Overnight Hero, but his name is not. Décio is one of the names in the Brazilian translation of YD 68-09-23. In the English version he is called Dave. So, Dave and Dora are the same ones as Décio and Dora. One of those pairs needs I think to be removed.
Zebedeus Duck is the last character causing confusion; there are two Zebedeus Ducks on the tree. Since you say that Zebedeus is a great great uncle, that would put him as the earlier one, who is currently marked with the above-mentioned strip. I'm not sure where the idea of there being a second Zebedeus came from, but I'm rolling with it currently.
Ah, the other Zebedeus I had also missed. I would not be surprised if one of those Zebedeus is caused by a translation. There are multiple Dutch translations in which other characters have been translated to Zebedeus. Anyway, I can read from the INDUCKS scan from H 88117 that in the Dutch version he is Donald's achter-oudoom, which means great-great-uncle.
For Dora (Line 3, Square 49), the strip mentioned is already on the tree - for a different Dora. There are four Doras on the tree, which has been very confusing - if you think that I should swap the Dora that's currently labelled with the strip in question, I'd be willing to rethink things!

One of those pairs needs I think to be removed.
After some more consideration. I think that the confusion of assigning names from the Brazilian translation of YD 68-09-23 to unnamed cousins from the Overnight Hero has resulted in more duplications in the family tree. Domingos Duck is the same one as Dominic Barbosa. Dario and Dino are the same ones as Dick and Dexter. Día is the same one as Daphne. Douglas Duck is now twice on the tree as Donald’s cousin. And if the scan of Duílio is indeed from the Overnight Hero, then he is already on the tree as Duncan Barbosa or Dwight Barbosa. (the English version gives more names than the Brazilian one) For Danilo I am not sure if he was already named as such in the Overnight Hero, or if Maurice also took it from Brazilian version of YD 68-09-23. In that case he is the same one as Derick Duck.
So, there are two ways to solve this, I think. 1. The duplicates are removed by combining the English names from YD 68-09-23 with the Overnight Hero pictures. 2. Or the Brazilian names themselves are just removed from the Overnight Hero pictures and they are given no name at all, while the YD 68-09-23 ducks are considered other relatives.
