Redd Foxx, infamous comedian and actor, was far more promiscuous that his descendants like to popularize. Born Jon Elroy Sanford, he's remembered by most as his character Fred Sanford, the beloved junk store owner of Sanford and Son notoriety. While most of his adoring fans are aware that with his four wives, Evelyn Killebrew, Betty Jean Harris, Yun Chi Chung, and Ka Ho Foxx, Foxx had a total of zero biological children, almost nobody knew that Foxx's mother, Mary Sanford Carson, might've had around 18 siblings. All of their alleged descendants went either into show business or disappeared à la Jimmy Hoffa. Some of the most famous people on this list are listed below. Check it out!
