On the DCEU board, someone wrote a post asking about the Darkseid family tree and whether Steppenwolf is "Darkseid's uncle on his mother's side or his father's side".
I have a similar question about the Carter family tree. Is Peggy Carter Sharon Carter's aunt on her mother's side or her father's side? |

Kind of hard to tell unless Peggy had a sibling born around the time of Peggy being in her prime or Sharon would be her great niece or even great great niece not just a regular niece, she's a great niece or more her father would need to be Peggy's brother/nephew otherwise the likely hood of the Carter name sticking threw 70 years of female only Carters seems odd.
Then again Sharon could have simply changed her last name to honour her famous aunt so it doesn't matter, I don't think weve been shown a family tree of the Carters have we?

All we know from the MCU, it's version of Sharon Carter is Peggy's great niece. Peggy had a brother who died in WWII

In her tv series it was revealed that she had a older brother. Hmmm. Well, in The First Avenger, Peggy Carter is in her late 20s and it takes place in the early 1940s. Peggy Carter died in Civil War so that means Peggy Carter was in her late 90s and possibly over 100 years old when she died.
In Civil War, Sharon Carter is about 30 years old. Even if we assume that Sharon Carter's mother didn't give birth to Sharon until she was in her early 40s, that would put Sharon Carter's mother at no older than early 70s in Civil War. So there's a 30-year difference between Peggy Carter and Sharon Carter's mother. If Peggy Carter had an older brother who was married to Sharon Carter's mother, then the age difference between Sharon Carter's parents would be more than 3 decades.
Of course, it's possible that Sharon Carter's father was a billionaire playboy like Hugh Hefner who married women 36 years and 60 years younger than himself.

Emily Van Camp, Den Of Geek interview: True I myself have half dozen or so nieces and nephews despite not being married and my only sibling does not having any kids, but I have several close cousins who I grew up with so their kids call me Uncle Daz when I'm technically their 2nd cousin. |
