a great many potions and spells to the Book of Shadows. She bound Prue, Piper, and Phoebe's powers when they were children

Patrick Cassidy - Allen Halliwell was the first husband of Penelope "Penny" Johnson, the father of her
only daughter, Patricia Halliwell, and grandfather of the four Charmed Ones (Prudence, Piper and Phoebe Halliwell, and Paige Matthews).[1] Allen, a mortal who was completely accepting of witchcraft, and his wife were peace-loving hippies during the 1960s, hosting many be-ins at the family manor and gatherings in the local
park. Unfortunately, Allen was killed by Penny's former best friend, Robyn, and Robyn's warlock boyfriend, Nigel. As a result, Penelope became a fierce demon and warlock slayer, vanquishing Nigel in revenge. Allen was never able to witness the
birth of his granddaughters; however, he met Piper, Phoebe and Paige when the three accidentally time-traveled to the time
immediately before (and immediately after) his death. According to his widow, Allen was a "good man" and, even today, his
great-grandson Wyatt Halliwell has "a little" resemblance to him.

Finola Hughes - Mother of Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and Paige; daughter of Allen and Penelope. She was married
to Victor Bennett and had an affair with her Whitelighter Samuel Wilder (Paige's father). Patty kept her fourth pregnancy
a secret, since the Elders wouldn't approve, and gave the baby up shortly after giving birth). Only her mother and lover knew
about that child. Like Piper, Patty possessed the power of Molecular immobilization, and she was briefly able to have premonitions while carrying Phoebe, which means she
more than likely was telekinetic whilst carrying Prue and Paige.. She was killed by a water demon on February 28, 1978, but her spirit occasionally visits her children.

Tony Denison (season 1), James Read (seasons 3-8) - The father of Prue, Piper, and Phoebe. Born in 1949. He divorced the
Charmed Ones' mother, Patricia Halliwell, when the girls were young, after not coping well with his wife and daughters having
supernatural powers. Victor wasn't present for much of the girls' lives; his eldest daughter Prue resented him for most of
her life. He began building a relationship with his daughters after they rediscovered their powers in their twenties). By
end of the third season, he was on good terms with all three girls. At the beginning of the fourth season, he found out that
Patty and her whitelighter Sam had a daughter named Paige together, and treated her like a daughter of his own. He has also
reconciled with Patty through conversations with her ghost (though he still doesn't get along with Grams' spirit). Victor
travels a lot for work and only occasionally drops in for visits. In the future as told by his grandson Chris, he and Victor were close due to Piper's death; however, as the Charmed Ones and Chris
put the future on a different course and Piper's death was averted, it is unknown if this will change (based upon how happy
adult Wyatt and Chris are to see Victor in the episode "Forever Charmed", it appears the two grandsons still have a close relationship with their grandfather
even though Piper lives to an old age). He takes custody of both Wyatt and Chris when the Charmed Ones have to fake their
deaths at the end of Season 7). Tony Denison portrayed Victor for one episode, after which James Read took over the role. Victor was originally written to have the surname Jones (see "Thank You for
Not Morphing"), however, he was officially re-named Victor Bennett.

Scott Jaeck - During the nineteenth century, Sam Wilder was an award winning teacher, earning
his award in 1872. Following his death, he was given the chance to be a whitelighter and was, subsequently, assigned to Patty
Halliwell's. The two fell in love, causing Patty and Victor to separate. Patty eventually became pregnant with Paige and they
mutually decided to give the baby up due to the rule forbidding Whitelighters and Witches from coupling. Later when Patty
attempted to battle a Water Demon, Sam tried to stop her but Patty died. Going into depression, Sam stopped answering his
Whitelighter calls until he met Patty's first three daughters over 20 years later. Helping them destroy the Water Demon that
killed Patty, Sam fell victim as well and died a second time. He was eventually resurrected again as a Whitelighter and eventually
met his daughter Paige). They have an on-again/off-again relationship that was not completely resolved in the show.
