It could be Mary - you never specify in the problem that she only has 4 kids.  She could have two dozen :)

Dan Brown (the author) claims that the holy grail is not a goblet but documents that show jesus's decendents. In it he claims that jesus was married to Mary Magdelene, and they had children. He probably wrote it because he was interested on subject and thought it could sell some books, it also explores in depth age old cults, stone masons knights of templar etc. At then end of the day its nothing to get worked up about, ITS IN THE FICTION section of the book store for gosh sakes.

What did Drake find out on his voyage around the world?\nDrake's voyage helped to give a more accurate picture of the true geography of the world. During the course of the voyage, Drake discovered that Tierra del Fuego, the land seen to the south of the Magellan Strait, was not part of a southern continent as had been believed previously, but an archipelago, or group of islands. Francis Fletcher, the chaplain on Drake's ship described it like this:\n\nIn passing along we plainly discovered that same Terra Australis to be no continent, but broken islands and large passages amongst them....\n\nThis meant that if the American continent was not connected to a southern continent, the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans met at Cape Horn. It should be possible to sail ships around the bottom of South America, south of Tierra. This was the Cape Horn route, eventually discovered in 1616.

I always heard that he was gay. But, many people have rumors started about them. I guess you would have to know him to substantiate that.\n\nWikipedia says, "He never married, although he did propose to two women - one the daughter of a British writer - and was rejected by both."

The most fathererd would have to be the story not long ago about the guy who worked at the sperm bank and was making regular deposits and trading out other peoples stuff for his. Not sure on the total number's but I think it happened in the north east part of the country. I know he had so many and was found out when 2 of his kids almost got married to each other, thank god for the blood test I guess.

Very little... \n\nIt is consistantly regarded that the "Mary" next to Jesus in "The Last Supper" is John, who was constantly portrayed as affemenant during the reformation.  There is virtually no evidence to support the fact that Jesus had offspring, nor is there any reason to believe that there is anything significant hidden in the works of Da Vinci...\n\nBut it really is a heckuva lot of fun to think about.
