I would agree that one must have some innate ability to use magic. The major characters we've seen that from would be Rumple, Cora, Zelena, Regina and Emma. However, Rumple got his powers from the Dark One's curse, and it's always been implied that Emma's powers come from being the product of True Love. I don't think these kinds of powers would necessarily pass on to Henry. Cora, Regina and Zelena, however, definitely had innate ability that was later refined.

I really wouldn't call Henry a "product of true love" - that's not something you inherit. Emma is, yes, but Henry might not be. It all depends on whether Emma and Neal were True Loves. I remember Neal Talking about blood magic ... that he had because the dark one was His Father and His dad was before Being the dark one. I am sure Henry has powers. Emma and Neal have it. Neal didn't appear to have magic. Blood magic is simply magic linked to a specific bloodline. For example, Rumple can cast a seal on the shop. Neal and Henry can open it because they are related by blood. Regina, however, can not, even though she has magic. Yeah, id forgot that. But i still thinking that Henry has magic. Regina told him that he could learn, back in season 2.
