Best Answer

Hathor's parents in law were Osiris and Isis. This is because she was married to Horus, son of these two gods.

^Only very rarely will you see Hathor the child of Nut and Geb. Nut only consorted with her brother (Geb), and both Nut and Geb are children of Shu and Tefnut, who were the children of Atum-Ra. Making Nut Hathor's, what, niece? Hathor has no mother because she came of Ra as his eye (aka the "Eye of Ra"). In some stories, she was linked with Sekhmet (Hathor-Sekhemt), but after Ra cunningly calmed her Sekhmet became Hathor again, and they later split into individual goddesses. You were right about Hathor consorting with Horus, but "Horus the Elder" to be specific.
