Wow! You've really put a lot of thought into this! I have so many different universes to keep up with, as well past events also with various stories. I don't want to bump up my incomplete timeline right now. Tomorrow, I could maybe compile a list of that are common to most universes - but even that would be hard.

Of course, D.J. scales put in most of the info about the Ungers and families of other gang members. I think my main focus was on the McFlys, Parkers, Tannens, and Needles. I suppose I have to think of who Marty's other cousins would be.

DJ Scales really loves the Ungers, doesn't he?

Yeah, he does. He expressed disappointed that I didn't have an Unger in Biff's gang, but that was after I already came up with the names.

BTW, Mitchell Matthews is also a good name for Match.

Do all the Ungers look like Ricky Dean Logan?

All the latter ones do. Obviously, the one in Buford's gang wouldn't. Rufus originally wasn't supposed to be an Unger, but... You probably know the rest.

So Rufus' wife looks more like Ricky Dean Logan then?

Probably, yeah! :)

I just decided that Biff Tannen is the cousin of Jennifer's mother and that Lester is the cousin of Jennifer's father.

That sounds awesome! Actually, someone did suggest Lester being Jennifer's father before.

Just out of curiosity, has Jennifer grown up in Hill Valley - and when did she and Marty meet?

Jennifer originally lived somewhere else. She first met Marty in 1984.

Who made Lester Jennifer's father? I know Blind Spot made him Jennifer's uncle.

Well, nobody that I know of actually did it in a fic. People were kind of joking about the idea on another board, though.
