Who wrongly thought that Abraham's and Isaac's wives were their sisters?

Abimelech, in both cases (Genesis ch.20 and 26).
Note that "Abimelech" was a title (like "Pharaoh"), not a personal name. Since many decades passed between the two incidents, it was probably two different "Abimelechs."

Both Abraham and Isaac lied about the identity of their wives, Sarah and Rebekah, claiming them to be their sisters to protect themselves. However, it was King Abimelech of Gerar who unknowingly took Sarah as his wife, thinking she was Abraham's sister (Genesis 20). Isaac did the same deceit with Rebekah, which was (fortunately) discovered before a similar incident happened (Genesis 26:7).

Does Joseph Isaacs son Joseph have daughters?
If you're talking about the figures in the Biblical book of Genesis, then let's back up a few generations and try to get it straight: -- Abraham migrated to Israel late in his life. His children included his son Isaac. -- Isaac lived his whole life in Israel. His children included his son Jacob. -- Jacob left Israel, worked for his uncle for 20 years, and returned to Israel. He had 12 sons and one daughter. Joseph was one of the sons. Dina was the daughter. Joseph was forcibly taken to Egypt as a teen-ager. Years later, Jacob and the rest of his family migrated to Egypt during a famine. All of them died there.
