William Carl and Mary (Rambow) Heiden had thirteen children, all of whom lived to adulthood. Eleven of them went on to have children resulting in 38 grandchildren for William and Mary. Those grandchildren went on to produce 84 great grandchildren.

Two of the grandchildren, Dale Arthur, son of Lester and Lila (Viets) Heiden and an unnamed boy, son of Arthur and Mildred (Roggerman) Heiden did not survive to adulthood.

The grandchildren were born over a span of nearly 40 years from 1919 to 1958. Walter Berns was the oldest of this generation and Gail Baker is the youngest of the 38.
