John There will never be any DESCENDANTS of George WASHINGTON. The reason is that when he was a young boy, he contracted a childhood disease (probably mumps) which left him sterile and thus unable to ever father any children. I realize your saying you were a descendant of his was simply a slip of the pen but there are some people who claim to be his descendant.
