Doctor Who family tree

daibhidc(I've given up trying to get this to look right in a proportional font. Please cut-and-paste into Notepad, and you should see it properly. Sorry.)
Anyway, daft idea that occured to me a couple of days ago when I was thinking about how much of the Doctor's family history was revealed in the books, even as they insisted they were bringing back the mystery. It'd have been up then, but, as mentioned above, I kept trying to get it to look right.
(Edit: Thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pedanther, I now know how to set it to a non-proportional font. So I've done that, and also fixed a spelling mistake, and a bit where it didn't seem to line up right. It should be OK now.)
(Further edit: Following an anonymous responder who asked, I've added Jenny from "The Doctor's Daughter".)
(Further further edit: Now with the Doctor-Donna and Susan's kids from "Legacy of the Daleks"!)
(Yet another edit: Reread Unnatural History and the character who's probably Ulysses is married to a woman called Anne, probably based on the Doctor's father's second wife in one of the unmade film scripts. And Susan and David have a son in the audio "An Earthly Child".)
(Yet another edit: Suddenly realised I should probably add River. And since I'm including clones, probably the Ganger Doctor as well.)
Notes for anyone who isn't a total anorak:
Penelope Gate first appeared in the Virgin New Adventures novel "The Room With No Doors" by Kate Orman, as a time-traveling Victorian scientist/adventuress. This was the second-to-last Seventh Doctor stories, so was probably written in the knowledge the Doctor was half-human in the TV Movie.
Ulysses was going to be the name of the Doctor's father in various films that weren't made. In the BBC Book Eight Doctor Adventures novel "Unnatural History" by Orman and Jon Blum, we meet Daniel Joyce [Joyce -> James Joyce -> Ulysses], who interestingly claims *not* to be a Time Lord, but is strongly hinted to be the Doctor's father, and has a photo of himself, a woman who resembles Penelope Gate, and a young girl. Hence the unnamed daughter.
Ulysses and Penelope finally appeared as more or less definitely the Doctor's parents (and with the descriptions matching the above) in the EDA "The Gallifrey Chronicles" by Lance Parkin. This also featured the Master's father, which is why he's not on the tree, no matter *how* many fan theories there are that he's the Doctor's brother.
"The Other's biodata" (and, indeed, the House of Lungbarrow) is a reference to the Cartmel Masterplan. If you don't know what that is, you really don't want me to try to explain it. Find a synopsis of "Lungbarrow" by Marc Platt. Note that I've ignored that book's revelation that Susan is the Other's granddaughter, because I think it's been overtaken by later events.
Irving Braxiatel was invented by Justin Richards in the NA "Theatre of War" and revealed to be the Doctor's brother in the Doctorless NA "Tears of the Oracle", also by Richards. Simon Winstone, who was editing the NAs at that time, is also the script editor of the current series, in which the Doctor implies he once had a brother.
Patience is the Doctor's ex in "Cold Fusion" and "The Infinity Doctors", both by Parkin. It's not clear she's Susan's grandmother (hence the ?), but she's the best candidate in a field of one.
Susan is the Doctor's granddaughter from "An Unearthly Child". If you didn't know that, the rest of this must be utter gibberish. Sorry.
John and Gillian are from TV Comic. They have question marks against them because both the books and the DWM comic strip have explained they don't exist. This is frankly the simplest option, but if I hadn't mentioned them someone would have pointed it out.
The Doctor adopted Miranda in the EDA "Father Time" by Lance Parkin (again). Her daughter Zezanne appears in the EDA "Sometime Never..." by Justin Richards (again). The degree of homonymity between "Susan" and "Zezanne" is not a coincidence, but I'd rather explain the Cartmell Masterplan...
So, anyone I missed?

Date: 2010-02-11 11:27 am (UTC)In any event, this is all thrown into confusion by the fact that when Doctor-Donna was created, the Doctor reacted as though a half-human half-TimeLord was an unthinkable thing, and he'd never seen the like before.
Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-11 08:43 pm (UTC)Also, are you going to Add David Campbell, and their three adopted children David Campbell Jr, Ian Campbell and Barbara Campbell, and their biological child Alex?????
Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-14 02:15 pm (UTC)Where are Susan and David's kids mentioned? I've tracked down a DWM short story which mentions Barbara, but none of the others.
Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-16 06:10 pm (UTC)At the bottom, that is Ian, Barbara and David Campbell Jr
http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Ian_Campbell
here is alex
http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Alex_Campbell
I have also checked
Miranda's surname is Dawkins, so presumably, Zuzanne is too
If you read the Paul McGann script on here, it states that Borusa (Renamed Barusa) is the Doctor's grandfather

Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-16 08:06 pm (UTC)I'm not sure unused scripts are canon, especially when they also say the Master is the Doctor's father or uncle. I'm adding the rest, though.

Date: 2010-02-19 03:27 pm (UTC)The Doctor Donna is what DONNA became, not the 10 clone that was created...
Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-19 04:38 pm (UTC)Re: Missing
Date: 2010-02-19 05:07 pm (UTC)but it is too hard to rearrange it on this website... so... unless we find someway to send each other emails so you can post it up...
Re: Missing
Date: 2010-08-29 04:06 pm (UTC)Just need to add River now, as she herself, doesn't deny the marriage between her and the Doctor (Time of Angels/Flesh of Stone) so It is very likely that she married him as that would be the only time he would tell anyone his name.
