Gene has been married four times. The women's names are: Mary Mercer, Mary Joan Schutz, Gilda Radner, and Karen Webb. Gene's marriages to Mary and "Jo" (as he calls Mary Joan in his autobiography) ended in divorce, and as most people know, his marriage to Gilda ended when she died far too soon of ovarian cancer. As for Karen, as of December 2012, she and Gene have been happily married for just over 21 years!
Yes. He has one daughter, Katharine Anastasia. He adopted her shortly after marrying her mother, Mary Joan Schutz (his second wife, whom he would later divorce). Sadly, however, father and daughter became estranged when Katharine was in her early 20s (one of the few events in his life that Gene refuses to talk about in any detail, saying it's "too painful").

I believe there are no descendants from the Ingall's family. Mary had no children. Laura had one living child, Rose. However, Rose did not have any children. Grace had no children. Carrie I believe had step children, but no biological children. So, the only liniage would be from Laura's cousins who may have had children.....
