The Clan McDuck is a fictional family in the style of a Scottish clan, from which a great number of Walt Disney Company's comic book characters held their origin. According to Don Rosa's timelines the Clan has existed at least since 122 AD, when an, as yet unnamed, member of the clan sold stone to the construction crew of Hadrian's Wall. The Clan McDuck was originally called the Clan MacDuich but dropped the Gaelic spelling of the name in 1071 and became the McDucks. The most famous members of the clan are Scrooge McDuck and Donald Duck.
