How did George Washingtons family continue?

Answer 1

George Washington had no (known) offspring of his own. Martha had two children with her first husband, Daniel Parke Custis who passed away leaving a young Martha and two children, John (Jacky) & Martha (Patsy), along with a very substantial estate. Several years later when Martha & George married, George raised the children as his own. Patsy died at age 17 following debilitating seizures several years earlier. Jacky died of "camp fever" (Typhus) only days after joining his stepfather in the war efforts. Jacky's wife had several children passing along the Custis surname.
