Pizarro had three sons and one daughter. A son whose name and mother are unknown died in 1544. He had two children by an Indian girl named Inés Huaillas Yupanqui: Gonzalo who was legitimized in 1537 and died when he was fourteen, and a daughter, Francisca, who was legitimized by imperial decree on 10 October 1537. Another son, Francisco, was sired upon a relative of Atahuallpa's but was never legitimized, and died shortly after his arrival in Spain.

What hymning of cancerous vices may we not languish over as sublimest art in the safe remoteness of a strange language and artificial phrase! Yet we keep a repugnance to rheumatism and other painful effects when presented in our personal experience.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
