Editing Clan McDuck (section)

===Aunt Eider===
'''Aunt Eider''' is the aunt of both Scrooge McDuck and [[John D. Rockerduck]]. The Italian story "La Stella di Burbank",<ref>[http://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=S+AT++215-C Coa Inducks - Page to the comic story ''The star of Burbank'' (title translated from Italian reprint)]</ref> where she is portrayed as a myopic old woman who doesn't realize she needs to wear glasses, is presumably her first comic book appearance. But Aunt Eider appears wearing glasses in her next three comic book appearances. [[Dick Kinney]] wrote the last three comic stories where this character was used, and three famous cartoonists respectively drew those ones. Al Hubbard, [[Marco Rota]] and [[Giorgio Cavazzano]]. Neither of these stories was published in America. The story "Most Helpful Aunt Eider" is the only one where Aunt Eider doesn't meet her wealthy nephews. It's a [[Junior Woodchucks]] story.<ref>[http://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=S+73228 Coa Inducks - Page to the comic story ''Most Helpful Aunt Eider'']</ref>

Since there isn't any clue on how the tireless and slightly bossy Aunt Eider could be the aunt of both Scrooge and Rockerduck in the comic stories with her, some fans of this universe have invented their own explanations for this fact. It really seems she never had a surname, so she has been connected to Scrooge's family through his paternal grandmother, Molly Mallard, who would be an aunt of Eider. This would make Eider a ''Mallard'' too, but, of course, this is not a widely accepted explanation at all. According to this same invented explanation, Aunt Eider would be a sister of Rockerduck's mother.
