The Greek pantheon spawned dozens of mortal or demigod offspring. I imagine many other RL religions have been similar. So what about on Golarion?
Aroden and Cayden probably had kids before apotheosis and quite plausibly afterwards. Norgorber? We'll never know. Irori and Nethys? I doubt it. Iomedae? Sounds very unlikely. And then there are people like Kurgess and Milani and so on. And that's just the ones who started on Golarion. Lamashtu must have bred with humans at some point. Ditto Calistria, but she probably wouldn't have had kids.
All I can find on PF Wiki is Godling which says they exist but gives no examples.
So if these gods did leave descendants, where are they?

According to Demon's Heresy, a character with one of the campaign traits in Wrath of the Righteous (Touched by Divinity) is an actual child of a deity. However, other than having "unactivated" mythic potential there doesn't seem to be any inherent benefit to being the child of a deity and a mortal.
Kurgess is speculated to have been the son of Cayden Cailean or Desna, or possibly both (though why he'd be mortal instead of a celestial or demigod is anybody's guess).
