Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood's Daughter

There is such a term as a menopausal baby.When you think about it,Marion Ravenwood was only 48 in 1957 and some women can still give birth at that age.However,if she would have given birth a little bit later,that baby daughter would have been considered a menopausal baby.There is still the possibility of the daughter being adopted(although,I personally don't think she was adopted),but I just wanted to throw this "menopausal baby" theory out there.So,please tell me what you think.:D

You've done your homework!
Maybe daughter in law Or maybe he adopted her like Short Round on a adventure.
it's plausable that INdy and Marion could still have a kid but lets sayhis daughter is 40 here then she would be born about...
1992
- 40
_____
1952

1992 - 40 = 1952



Can that be right before crystal skull?
Still...Give or take 2 years???
Some one help Me!!!

BTW another good unanswered question are they watching Matlock or Hawaii 5-0???

Or you could, you know, upload the family tree to imageshack or some such and then post it back here.


I don't know how to do that,because I've never done it before.Sorry,I can be such a blond sometimes.:)

I just don't find it plausible that Indy has a daughter. She's too young to be married to Mutt. I guess if she was born right after KOTCS in '58 it would fit her age, but I can't imagine Indy and Marion wanting to have another kid at such an old age. Plus, if the bookends where taken out then that probably means they're not canon anymore (that is, if you consider YIJC canon in the first place).

^ If the bookends aren't canon anymore, then why hasn't the Indycron dismissed it?

Personally, I do count YIJC as canon and I'd like to think of the Old Indy Bookends as canon also. I certainly am not about to argue on the validity of the series as a whole on the canon issue as we have been down that road before, and it certainly wasn't pretty....

well canon or not the yijc were very nice , but with george lucas taking out the old indy scenes from the dvd sets maybe he wanted to delete all that from the canon, and just have the adventures themselves be just that the main stories --- much as i loved the old crusty jones telling the stories , but that is just my opinion, everyone will be entitled to their own also --- but i myself will just consider the dvd sets as canon without the old indy scenes .:D

I agree. I never liked the Old Indy bookends. Sorry, but cant imagine the Indy from Raiders through to Skull turning into that dotty old Grandpa Simpson type man. I was quite happy to see them removed from the DVD sets to be honest, so long as the Harrison one was left in.

Hey, Annie, for further in-depth discussions on the subject, here are the "biggies":

Indy has a daughter?
Indy should have a daughter

That is interesting on how in that series Indy has a daughter, and in the film he has a son. I wonder if that was the main reason they cut George Hall off the YIJC rereleases. I really wished they didn't because I haven't seen all of them, and it would have been really interesting to see Indy reacting to a daughter in the movies too. I have a few ideas about it,
1. It's Marion's and Indy has no clue
2. It's Indy's and Willie's long lost daughter
3. Indy and Marion have the kid together right after Crystal Skull.
Those are just my theories.

I think we can / should consider the original bookends canon unless and until some new official story (a new movie, a licensed novel, whatever) comes out that irreconcilably contradicts them in some way. Given that, while it might be unlikely Indy would have a daughter of the apparent age shown in the show, as long as it's still possible I don't have a problem with it, and there's ample room for possibility, as shown in this very thread.

(Certainly any Indy fan who has a problem with portrayals of anything unlikely is going to have an awful lot more to worry about in the Indy mythos than just whether he has a daughter or not... ;) )

I personally,wish they would have kept old Indy and his daughter in there.She more than likely would have been born after Indy and Marion were married because of her age(she more than likely was born between 1958 and 1959)and did anyone even read about my "menopausal baby" theory? I mentioned that,because I just wanted to know what people thought about that idea.:)

umm Dayne just a question if you dont like young Indy why are you on the forum? :confused:

But I never said I didn't like The Chronicles. In fact, I own the first two volumes on DVD. I just meant that I don't really consider them canon with the movies, that's all. But I do find them enjoyable from a historic point of view! I hope that answers you're query (y)

Daughter?????

Have you ever thought that she could be Mutt?s twin sister and Marion just didn?t tell Indy in the KOTCS since he was just hit with having a son. Maybe in all of the confusion, she just didn?t have time to tell him. Maybe she was in the church at the wedding? Maybe she was over seas and couldn?t make the wedding. Maybe she is Marion?s daughter from her first marriage and Indy adopted her. Maybe that is Mutt?s wife and she just calls Indy Dad? If you think like a writer, there is always a way to make anything fit whatever you want it to fit.

Hi, Jack. She is too young for any of these possibilities and there are no kids at the wedding (apart from Mutt).

Yes, that has been suggested before by a few people (including myself) in one of "daughter" threads I linked to on Page 1.

Anyway, welcome to The Raven.:)
