=== Jake McDuck ===
'''Jake McDuck''' (1832–?) is Scrooge McDuck's uncle. He was mentioned in the story "[[A Christmas for Shacktown]]" (1952) by [[Carl Barks]], in which [[Donald Duck]] dresses up as Jake in an attempt to trick Scrooge into giving money to charity.

The character was later used by [[Don Rosa]], and appears in three of twelve original chapters of Rosa's ''[[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck]]''. He lived in the same house as his brother [[Fergus McDuck]] and helped Fergus and his wife [[Downy O'Drake]] to raise their children.<ref name="LoS1"/> He settled in McDuck castle along with his brother in 1885.<ref name="LoS5"/> However, it appears that by 1902, Jake was no longer living there.

According to Rosa's sketches and timelines, Jake was born in 1832<ref name="Rosa"/> to [[coal]] miners [[Dingus McDuck]] and [[Molly 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.
