Descendants of Silas gold aka Solomon Grundy

An ongoing theme in the two so-called descendants of Grundy is a lack of reliability. Firstly there is Karin Rykel who's only appearance is in Batman: Shadow of the Bat #39 1995. In which she is shown to be a tour guide who works out of slaughter swamp and claims to be a descendant of Silos Gold. She states that he had an illegitimate child with Rachel Rykel before his death, but Rachel may not have been telling the truth. She also states that he became Grundy in 1895, but in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe XXI says that he became Grundy in 1894. Best can be explained away by changes in continuity. By the end of the issue she is dead by Grundy hands.

Second is Chrissie Cavendish who claimed to be his great great granddaughter of grundy and wish to end his misery, when in actuality she wanted to become like him. Appearing to think that he is perfect after reading his journals. This version of Grundy supposedly being a scientist who tried to cure all disease and injury and use the formula on himself turning himself into Solomon Grundy. While working with star Labs she recruits Green Arrow to help her hunt down Solomon Grundy. Believing they are trying to cure him green arrow helps her obtain some of Grundy's DNA, she then uses it to create a formula to turn herself into a monster similar to Grundy. Green arrow and Grundy end up killing the monster as it rampages. Due to her idealized view of Solomon Grundy and her fanaticism throughout she cannot be considered a reliable source on if she is or isn't related to him. Not to mention the vast difference in appearance towards Solomon Grundy after her transformation could point to them not being blood relatives or the results just varying wildly.

Jenny Hex is a pretty straightforward transfer for Earth 3, her ancestor on the other hand Jonah Hex is very much not.

The simple reversal of his backstory would have killed his father and then ran off to join the Indians instead of facing with law. Trying to kill the Chiefs and to replace him and when he finally succeeds being branded with a tomahawk on the left side of his face. Later in his life after the army he could go on to hunt supernatural creatures for their power and then be sent to the future where he would collect every bit of tech he could as an advantage when returning to the past.

Now this is where it gets complicated, in the comics he was a confederate soldier due to geography instead of politics. He is a person is never shown to be discriminatory, but with morals reversed on Earth 3 what would both sides look like. Especially with the fact in some continuities of Earth 3 President John Wilkes Booth was shot by Abraham Lincoln. There are also be ripple effects no one would want to deal with in modern day. The idea of a mirror universe history is interesting, but I can think of very few writers who would actually like to write a world that bad.
