They don't have to have inherited it from someone, just be born with it. As far as I know, before Emma, none of her blood relatives had magic. Plus, I don't think we know if Anastasia has magic yet. We know she had magic within her, because Gothel put the preservation spell on her (that's why Drizella wanted her), but now she's awake.
