Can you really call someone a member of the Race if they have no heirs? If race is a contiguous line of people, and one is a dead end, is it right to declare them essentially "anathema" from Whiteness?

Just an interesting shower thought I had. There are other achievements among great men outside of simply having children, but those are so far exceptional that I would put them in a separate discussion.

If race is about genetic relatedness and you pick a random European from history, if they never had any children then nobody is directly related to them. Their ancestry is White, but their progeny is not. In the same way as someone who has mixed race children. As an individual you can say they are White, but as a lineage, not anymore.

Race isnt about being directly related currently, even if a man had no kids we still share common ancestors with him from thousands of years ago.
