"Not in our family. Three hundred years and not a male in the bunch."
Penny Halliwell after Wyatt was born.[src]

The Warren Family Tree is a parchment scroll, displaying all the Charmed Ones' ancestors, dating all the way back to Melinda Warren and ending with Prue, Piper and Phoebe Halliwell.

History

Phoebe's Past Life

Phoebe Halliwell found the family tree in the attic after she was attacked by her past life P. Russell. After she used a spell to travel back to Russell's life, she discovered she was an evil witch and that she and her sisters were cousins. She found out that Russell died on the same day as they were on now.[1]

Choosing a Name for Wyatt

Leo and Piper had not chosen a name yet for Wyatt and looked at the family tree for inspiration. Paige walked in on them and discovered that there even was a tree, but was a bit sad when she saw that she wasn't added yet, a year and a half after she joined the family.[2]

Notes and Trivia

  • Paige is not listed on the family tree.
  • The family tree starts with Melinda Warren and ends with Prue, Piper and Phoebe, with little room to add anyone else. As the sisters were added to the tree, it was presumably created or at least by Penny or Patty Halliwell.
  • Phoebe wanted to burn the family tree because the information was inaccurate.[3]
  • According to Penny, no male witches have been born into the family for three hundred years, which probably means that all the men born in their family before Wyatt were mortals.[4]
  • Many names on the tree appear to be taken from characters who previously appeared on the show, including Aviva, Max Franklin and Curtis Williamson.

Discontinuity

The family tree was presumably created as a prop and contains many continuity errors.

  • Penny Halliwell's date of death is listed as March 5, 1965, despite her actual death happening on that date in 1998.
  • Penny Halliwell's date of birth is listed as June 23, 1937, though her daughter's birth is listed as April 5, 1950 which would have made Penny only 12 when she had Patty, another mistake on the page.
  • Prue Halliwell's birthdate contradicts her birthdate as stated in the obituary in "Charmed Again, Part 1".
  • Piper Halliwell's birthday contradicts her birthday as stated by Phoebe, who declares that Piper is a Gemini in "Once Upon a Time".
  • The tree states that Penny Johnson married Jack Halliwell. However, Penny married Allen Halliwell.
  • The tree lists Victor Bennett's last name to be "Jones".
  • P. Russell would not have been the same age as Phoebe was if she was born in 1894 as the tree states. She would have been born in 1899.
  • P. Bowen is shown to have died in May 1971. However, her future life Prue Halliwell was born about 8 months previously.
