Did George Washington father over 50 children with slaves?

Answer 1

Because he was afflicted with smallpox, it is probable that he was sterile.

This is a really good question. I am a descendent of George Washington.

Maybe. Some historians think he could have, but there is no proof. The theory is that the boy was his brothers child.

Answer 4

George Washington did not have any children at all.

Answer 5

Not likely. He never had any children with his wife - there is a good possibility that he was sterile due to a past illness.

He did not. Washington never had any children, not even with his wife. It's believed he may have been sterile.

Answer 7

Answer 8

Yes

Answer 9

Yes.
