The Eighth Doctor's memory of his mother's appearance resembled [[Penelope Gate]], a human [[time traveller]] who had a child with the Time Lord [[Ulysses]] in the generation before the Doctor's. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'') [[the Doctor (The Infinity Doctors)|The Doctor]] of an [[alternate universe]] remembered that his mother's name was Penelope.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Infinity Doctors (novel)|The Infinity Doctors]]'')


The [[Eleventh Doctor]] later insisted that his mother was a Time Lord, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Comfort of the Good (comic story)|The Comfort of the Good]]'') and the [[Twelfth Doctor]] neither confirmed nor denied [[Ashildr]]'s speculation that he was a half-human half-Gallifreyan [[The Hybrid|hybrid]].

According to one account, an [[[[The Doctor (The Brain of Morbius)||earlier incartion]] of the Doctor before the [[First Doctor]] married [[Patience]], and they had thirteen children together, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cold Fusion (novel)|Cold Fusion]]'') both "sons and daughters".

According to one account the Doctor traveled back in time, rescued [[Patience (Cold Fusion)|Patience]] and [[Susan Foreman|her granddaughter]] from a danger on Ancient Gallifrey. Eventually, the Doctor married Patience, and they had thirteen children together, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cold Fusion (novel)|Cold Fusion]]'') both "sons and daughters".

While Susan specifically identified the Doctor as her grandfather, ([[TV]]: "[[An Unearthly Child (episode)|An Unearthly Child]]", "[[The Escape]]") and the Doctor likewise considered Susan to be his grandchild, ([[TV]]: "[[The Rescue (episode)|The Rescue]]", ''[[Marco Polo (TV story)|Marco Polo]]'', ''[[The Sensorites (TV story)|The Sensorites]]'', "[[Flashpoint (episode)|Flashpoint]]") documents on [[Gallifrey]] were deliberately obscure about Susan's origins, some theorising that she was a direct descendant of [[The Other|a founding father]] of Gallifrey alongside a claim one of her parents was the [[Lord President|President of the Time Lords]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Brief History of Time Lords (novel)|A Brief History of Time Lords]]'') According to {{Ainley}}, Susan was a young Time Lady from the Doctor's own time who had stowed away on the Doctor's TARDIS.
