Minuteman Yancy Fry
.

Phillip J Fry   Mildred (no last name?)
       \         /
   Yancy Fry (Fry's dad)        Fry's Mom
        \                             /   
     Phillip J Fry   Yancy Fry (fry's bro)

Personally I think Philip was the father of his own mother. Several reasons I believe this.
1) Philips's mother had ginger hair, like Enos, and generally had much more of Phil's characteristics than Phil's dad.
2) Enos was never called by his sirname, meaning he may have not been a Fry.

Apart from that, after Phil's nephew...Phil, there comes a long line of dots and eventually you get Hubert Farnsworth, and then Cubert Farnsworth. However, having said that, I don't believe that Farnsworth is a direct decendent of Phil's nephew (since Phil J Fry II was brown from a brown father and blonde mother), unless his ginger-ness was from a recurring gene, or he got it from another blood line (or possibly some Frys married eachother along the way...eww). It is possible that Mildred had several children, and that the line may have carried on from them, technically making Phil and Hubert cousins, though several hundred times removed.

*Takes deep breath*
Anyway I'll shut up now.

That's about all we know about Fry's family at the moment! Wait he is his own Grandad and his father is his son! As I believe that Zed explained. So:
 Fry (himself)SEX Mildred
 Yancy(S) Sex Fry's mum
 Yancy (Jr)(and Fry)
 Yancy (Jr) Sex Wife
 Phillp. J. Fry
 994 years later..
 Professor Fernworth
 Coloned to make Cubert Fernworth!

 Just a thought, if Fernworth had sex with Mom, aren't her children also the professor's?

@ Lee Roberts:

The name is Farnsworth!

Aside from that, Farnsworth's affair with MOM was seventy years ago, but her sons don't look that old.

Sorry, but no. After knocking Enos onto the pile of rusty bayonettes, then learning about his cooking adventures, Fry shouts to Enos' crotch: "Everything's all right, dad!"

Clearly, Fry is the father of his own father.

At that point he didn't know that. He assumed that his father could be "produced" since the knife had missed enos' private parts.

But he didn't get nearly knifed until later! It was before they even left the base. But that's beside the point: I think Fry was just making a reference to the fact that Enos was his father's father.

I don't want to say this, but you are right.

1) Ginger hair is a recessive gene, therefore it is required to be in the gene set of both the mother and the father, to create co-dominance over the dominant brown haired gene, meaning that Enos could have very well been a Fry. But seeing as Enos was never Fry's grandfather it doesnt matter.

Check out the related topic I started called "FARNSWORTH PATERNITY RUMOR."  No pun intnded.  Get it?  "Related"?  Ah, forget it.  It wasn't that funny.  But do check out the topic anyway.  Now, that's interesting.

Grim brings up a great point.  To add to his post, I'd like to say that it could be possible that Fry never met his grandfather back when he was in the 20th century but may have heard his grandmother talk about him.  Come to think of it, I don't think Fry ever gave his name to Mildred in that particular episode.  She always says "You remind me alot of Enos."  Therefore, she simply just slapped the name Enos on him because she never got his name.

There's also no sense in trying to say "Well, wouldnt his own grandmother recognize him back when he was still in the 20th century?".  As people grow old, their memory starts to become a bit fuzzy, for the most part.  She most likely always made reference to Enos and telling Fry that he looked alot like his own grandpa (Enos)... even though he is his own grandpa.

I wonder if Fry's being his own grandfather is the cause/effect (Pff! Temporal paradoxes! You figure it out!) of his whole 'lacking-a-delta-brainwave' thing?

One way or another, Fry's family tree is a circle.

Once you trim away all the (presumed) branches, I'd say it's a Mobius band, 'cuz it has a twist in it...
