How many illegitimate children did George Washington had?

Answer by  patti (29325)

George Washington had no children of his own. His wife, Martha, was widowed with two kids when George married her and adopted them in 1759. A story, passed only by oral history, claimed that George had fathered a child with a slave, but there is no evidence to support the claim. Washington may have been sterile owing to childhood smallpox.

George Washington was believed to be infertile based on the fact that his wife never conceived during their marriage. Despite speculation and political rumors that George Washington may have fathered illegitimate children, the only evidence is an oral history passed down to the descendants of a slave named West Ford.
