/sarcasm Umm wasn't that part of a plot I read somewhere? /

VenDell explains in BoM that the Terris are working to consolidate bloodlines to birth a full feruchemist again. Wax suspected that the Set kidnapped the woman to breed more allomancers, but that hasn't been verified as far as I could tell.

And the suspects of that assumed breeding program seem to be a likely source of the spikes we see in the Set in BoM

Yet he still had children, and their descendants live on. So he would have had to be willing to kill his own children if they exhibited Feruchemy, or had a way to suppress that from being passed on.

True, but we know Inquisitors had spikes granting F-Gold, and we know that a soul is viable for Hemalurgic theft from conception onward. That's a cleanup policy that enhances his regime.

If you want to be even more morbid, he could turn Feruchemist children into Koloss. If he had a twinborn child with F-Gold, make them an Inquisitor. Hell, he could even have known how to spike out powers without killing the host. Say he spikes in a human attribute to replace that gap in the soul out of remorse or a desire to experiment. He could also spike out their F-Gold and spike it back into them so it's harder to inherit. There are many solutions that could end up with a living descendant that may or may not have access to Feruchemy.
