Angelina Jolie's and Mia Farrow's families seem large these days, but they wouldn't necessarily have been that remarkable 50 or more years ago.
Which stars had/have had the most kids? Or came from huge families (lots of siblings or lots of uncles and aunts)?

Eddie Cantor and his wife Ida had five children. This is special because they were all daughters.
Mel Gibson has nine children - three mothers involved.

Helen Mirren's mother was the 13th of 14 children born to a butcher whose own father had been Queen Victoria's butcher.
Incidentally, Mirren's grandfather (father's father) was a Russian diplomat who had been negotiating an arms deal with Britain when the Russian Revolution broke out, stranding him and his family in the UK, where he ended up becoming a London taxi driver--as related in Wikipedia.

Richard Burton was one of 13 children. Onscreen couple with the most kids has to be Michael Palin and Terry Jones in The Meaning of Life, surely? www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwAm6WjoKss |
