Ludwig Von Drake

Friedrich Von Drake ? Duck Cornelius Coot "Mother Goose"

Hofrat Von Drake & ? Coot: In german translation of "Duckburg, USA", appeared on Micky Maus 35/1962, it's said Ludwig is one of the children of Hofrat Von Drake and an aunt of Grandma Duck.

Friedrich Von Drake: Altough he is considered Ludwig's cousin by Gilles Maurice and professor's uncle in B 820318, Frederico Von Pato, translitterated by me in Friedrich Von Drake is, according to the INDUCKS, grandpa of "our" Ludwig.

? Duck: Grandma of Ludwig and sister of Donald Duck, Donald Duck's great-grandfather.
We know from W LVD 3-03 Donald and Ludwig descend both from the DuckFamily and they (both) have at least two forefathers in common: Columbust Duck and Deadeye Duck (written originally as "Deadeye Dick", but considered by me a misprint).

"Mother Goose": In the short "The Truth about Mother Goose", Ludwig remember her as her grandma and show a his baby photograph with her who keeps him on her knees.

In my opinion, as I've already explained in another topic, before his death, Cornelius Coot returned in Europe to spouse/marry "Mother Goose"...

I hope you'll like this version... ;)

I like your compliments... ;)

Quote from user: QuackbergI have to say though, that you Sim are very good at finding sources and to connect the family ties with that.
Again: not to criticize Sim, but... Some of those aren't sources or only appear in one translation!

One example:

In the American original version, none of these things are mentioned.

I really wish you would mark your threads as fanfic, Sim.

The answer is no.
OK.

Any specific reason why?

I don't really agree on everything on Gilles Maurice's family tree but I can accept on that Hofrat von Drake could be his grandfather - in Maurice's tree it shows that Hofrat is Ludwig's grandfather not his father. But I have an old idea that Ludwig's father's name is Albert von Drake with hair like Albert Einstein and is pretty much a caricature of him.

Doctor Gilles R. Maurice, who has collaborate with Disney... (GM), in his "My Duck Family Tree", put Hofrat Von Drake as Ludwig's father...

Now, I know you don't like very well that tree, particurarly because of the "Phooey Duck Topic", but leaving aside for a moment the personal matters, my presumed tie is accepted by a "Disney mamber"...
Those drawings you link to have only been printed in Rappet -- the internal magazine for the Danish Donaldist Society DDF(R). Since DDF(R) is a private club, articles and drawings printed in Rappet aren't necessarily sanctioned by the Walt Disney Company or of any of its licensees. In fact, articles and drawings printed in Rappet usually are only representative of the opinions of the articles/drawings' writer/artist. So Gilles Maurice is not a "Disney member", as you call it.

As for Gilles Maurice's Duck family tree: I have no problems with how he views Phooey. I actually like that tree and have told Gilles Maurice this several times. In fact, I have used the tree more than once as inspiration for one of my stories. I just don't view it as the Ultimate Truth.

Who told you I don't like that family tree?

And when did Gilles become a doctor?

Quote from user: Lars JensenAnd when did Gilles become a doctor?
I think when they of "D.O.N.A.L.D.I.S.M.E." gave to him a Diploma... ;)

Yes, I mean that, Why?
