    Donald's only sibling is a twin sister, who is presumably the mother of Huey, Dewy and Louie.

    Della Thelma Duck

    Della Thelma Duck/Dumbella Duck was first mentioned in a newspaper comic strip on October 17, 1937.

    She was the daughter of Hortense McDuck and Quackmore Duck. According to comics writer Don Rosa, Della was "born" around 1920. Her twin brother is Donald Duck; she is also the mother of Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck.

    The identity of the boys' father is something of a mystery, as he is hidden by a bird and several branches on Disney comics artist Don Rosa's family tree. Very little is known about him. It was revealed in an early comic strip that Mr. Duck was sent to the hospital because Huey, Dewey and Louie placed a firecracker under his armchair as a prank, with disastrous results. It was because of this incident that Della (or "Dumbella" as she was called in the theatrical cartoon that introduced the nephews) sent her sons to her brother, Donald Duck. While originally meant to be a one-month stay, the nephews wound up staying with Donald permanently; the reasons for this are unknown.

    In one Donald adventure, Donald Duck dresses up in a long, red wig and notes how much he looks like his sister[citation needed]. Several stories written by Rosa also show Della as a child, alongside her brother Donald.
