Buford "MadDog" Tannen- Biff's great-grandfather :buford:

Gertrude Tannen- Biff's Grandmother

Biff Tannen- The main villain

Cliff Tannen (Or Biff Jr)- Biff's son

Miff Tannen- Biff's other son

Griff Tannen- Biff's grandson and Cliff's son :griff:

Bill Tannen- Miff's son (The good Tannen) :)

Jennifer Parker McFly- Marty's wife :jen1:

Marty McFly- Our Hero :marty:

Marlene McFly- Marty and Jennifer's daughter

Marty McFly Jr- Marty and Jennifer's son :martyjr:

Norman Parker- Jennifer's grandfather

Douglas Needles- Marty's rival

Lauren Anne Needles- Douglas' wife

Roberta Needles- Douglas' oldest daughter

Amy Needles- Douglas' youngest daughter

Jiff Tannen- Biff's dad

Jill Tannen Paradise- Jiff's twin and Jennifer's grandmother

I have a feeling that I will be giving Biff a younger sister (actually, half-sister). D J Scales suggested having Rissy Unger (a girl) being the head bully in 1975 - with two female gang members and two male gang members. One of them will probably be Biff's half-sister, while the other one would be Hank Needles sister.

You must really like Data. Is Rissy Rex's older sister and Russ' daughter?

Biff would be old enough to be his half-sister's dad. Maybe make her Cliff and Miff's older sister.

Maybe have one of the males be Dixon's son. Dixon was that ugly kid that picks on George, kicking him and locking him in phone booths.

That's a good idea! I'll keep that in mind. :)

You can find the family tree here.

BTW, the one between Jennifer Peabody and Robert Parker is Norman. I just hadn't thought of it at the time, though.

I can't believe I missed this one. I'll run that one by D J Scales, and see what he says. :)

My Tannen Family-

Buford's son is Howard.

Howard bootlegged hooch during Prohibition.

Howard married Gertrude and birthed Frank.

Frank birthed Biff. Frank gets killed in WWII.

Biff marries Louise and births Jeff and Beth.

Jeff births Griff.

So there's not going to be a teenaged Tannen in 1925? What will Arthur be like? I was thinking it'd be neat if Arthur was 17 in 1925. Maybe, if there are no Tannens around his age - maybe Needles' grandfather.

I guess the main reason why I had Gertrude be a Tannen by birth, was to draw on the grandparent parallel from Part II even more. The Tiffany Gertrude thing may be a bit convoluted, but it's not unheard of for people to go by their middle names.

Frank Tannen was born in 1915, so he was 10 in 1925. Arthur was born in 1907, so he was 18 in 1925. Frank wasn't a bully.

The Needles family didn't move to Hill Valley until the '60s.

Sounds cool! So does Arthur get bullied by anyone in high school? Does he look like Crispin Glover or Michael J Fox? Does he have a sister who looks like Lea Thompson?

Yeah, it's probably a good idea to not make all the Tannens be bullies. I mean, they can't all be bad. With all do respect with Kristen Sheley and Charles A Murphy, they do seem to go a little overboard on that with their fics - but I kind of blame that on The Animated Series. Mary-Jean Holmes has a fic where she does a little twist on the concept - where Tannen is the the good guy (but still a bit of a dufus), while McFly is the bad guy.

I suppose it was admittedly a little overkill for me to have the McFlys, the Parkers, the Needles, and the Nelsons all end up from Virginia City in Nevada to Hill Valley in California - but I, at least, kept it in southwestern United States.

Arthur does look like Crispin Glover but I have no plans for Marty to visit Arthur in the 20s. Neither of his sisters look like Lea Thompson. He did get bullied some, but not by anyone important.

Okay. You said you had three stories planned. The returning to 1985 one that you're doing now, and the dimensional hopping one? What was the third one you said?

What are you going to depict Arthur's personality as?

In between the dimension hopping one and the one I'm doing now is the one where Marty goes to 1967.

Arthur was a lot like the original George.

Are you going to use Ellen as the name of the sixth child? What will Toby be like? I think it'd be nice to Marty to make friends with some people his age in that time period. Is it going to centre around his conception?

Ellen is the name of the sixth child. I haven't thought about what to do with Toby. Marty would have already been conceived when he visits.

Sounds good! It'd make things a lot easier for Marty.

I'm thinking of having Needles be Biff's illegitimate son. Neither of them know that they're father and son. Biff cheats on his wife in December of 1967 with a woman from out of town. She gets pregnant with Douglas and meets Mr. Needles shortly after realizing she's pregnant. They get married a couple months after Douglas' birth. Mr. and Mrs. Needles are the only people who know about Douglas' biological father. Douglas lives his life thinking that Mr. Needles is his real father and claims that there's a resemblance between them, even though they look nothing alike.

Buford, Frank, Biff, and Griff all look like Tom Wilson. Howard and Jeff look alike, but they don't look like any particular actor.

That's a good one! Just don't have Douglas Needles be Griff's father! So would he take after his mother?

Jeff is Griff's father. Douglas Needles does have his mother's black hair. Both Mrs. Needles and Biff have blue eyes. Needles inherited his ugly facial features from Biff. Mr. Needles looks nothing like Douglas. He has curly red hair and brown eyes. He also had pale skin and freckles. And he definitely doesn't have that huge gap in his teeth.

So what is the personality of Mr. and Mrs. Needles?

They're honest hard-working people, the exact opposite of Douglas.

So where does Douglas get his personality from? What do you think Lauren Anne, Roberta, and Amy would be like?

Nobody really knows where Douglas got his personality. He and Marty used to be friends, but he just became a big jerk. Lauren Anne, Roberta, and Amy are all decent people. Lauren Anne married Doug because she was into bad boys at the time, but she thought he would eventually grow up. She was wrong.

Now there's an interesting premise, the idea that the two might've used to be friends.

The Parkers.

Norman and Jane Parker have Robert.

Robert marries Suzy and has Jennifer.

Jennifer marries Marty and has Marty Jr and Marlene.

maternal lineage:
1. Buford Tannen had an affair with a woman, resulting in the birth of Tiffany Gertrude Tannen.
2. Charlie Needles raped Tiff Tannen, resulting in the births of Jiff and Jill.
3. Edmund Paradise married Jill Tannen, resulting in the nirth of Josie Paradise.
4. Robert Parker marries Josie Paradise, resulting in the bith if Jennifer Parker.

paternal lineage:
1. Buford Tannen raped Clara Parker, resulting in the birth of Jennifer Jane Parker.
2. Todd Kinsky married Jennifer Parker, resulting in the birth of Norman Parke.
3. Norman Parker marries Eleanor, resulting in the bith of Robert Parker.
4. Robert Parker marries Josie Paradise, resulting in the bith if Jennifer Parker.

I thought it was Josie Paradise and Edmund Paradise?

Oh, yeah, you're absolutely right! Todd Workman ended up with Alice McFly, and Edmund Paradise ended up with Tiffany Tannen. I thought I messed up somewhere. I'll fix that right away.

I guess, in the ASOUE Universe, Alice ends up with Theodore Quagmire - before he can reunite with Todd Kinsky.

Todd Kinsky. So Jennifer is part Polish?

Yeah, she is. I think Parker would be English. :)
