The most children born to one woman was 69

The most children born to one woman was 69 -- She had 16 twins, 7 triplets, and 4 quadruplets.

The really amazing thing of it is that with the 67 surviving kids, if each of them had 2 kids (a low number for back then, but we’ll be conservative here) and each of their kids had 2 kids and so on, and we assume about 25-ish years between generations. Then this couple currently has around 70,000 descendants!
