This book says he had two sons-in-law, so we would assume that at some point he had a wife and two daughters. Sons-in-law were Captain Fournier and Captain Becourt. The book also mentions the sons-in-law had children, so General Foch must have had at least 2 grandchildren. At one point, the General played with his grandchildren at Morlaix.
