This is for a book I’m writing where a character meets with an ancestor from ten generations ago.
In a similar fashion to how a parent may call their son “my son”, what would an ancestor call their descendant? My son/daughter? My child?

Wouldn’t heir be for someone who is to inherit something?

I guess it would depend on the nature of your book.
