We are never told much about Anders family, except that they come from the Anderfels(hence his nickname, Anders.), which is "German in character" according to Gaider. And I've noticed that the name Wilhelm is a German name. And the names Matthias and Amalia are also used in Germany (behind the name.
So my wild theory, is that Wilhelm and his wife had two children. One is Matthias and the other is Anders. And the latter was discovered as a mage and taken to the Circle while the other either successfully hid or was just able to use Wilhelm's devices because of a blood relation(since TSP implies that Wilhelm was a blood mage.)
It would also bring up curiosities about why he started going by Anders. Perhaps his name was embarassing to Fereldans. A name like Ludwig, Heinz, or Gunter? lol
