Just to add more speculation - when Donna looked at her birth 
certificate she saw that no father was listed, and her mother's
MAIDEN name was listed as HAYWARD.  Many wondered at this, and 
thought that it was a slight oversight - what if Eileen is Doc.
Hayward's daughter, all the kids are his grandkids, and they all
may (or may not, but probably are) be her kids.  And what if she
had some horrible stint in One-Eyed Jack's, which would explain
why Ben so desperately wants to make something up to her.  (Audrey
would probably have had to do a stint if they hadn't figured out
who she was.)
