Hmm, I never noticed.  You raise an interesting point.  I shall elaborate.
(yeah, everybody look out, I'm elaborating!)

Known death eaters:

Avery (first name or last name?  Referred to Voldemort as Avery.  Only
Lucius was referred
    to by first name, that we know for certain, but Avery can be a first or
last name).
Lucius Malfoy
The LeStranges (probably the thin man and dark haired woman in the
pensieve--in Azkaban)
Macnair
Crabbe
Goyle
Nott
Antonin Dolohov--Azkaban
Evan Rosier--killed in a struggle
Travers--Azkaban
Mulciber--Azkaban
Augustus Rockwood--Azkaban??
Ludovic Bagman (was he really a DE?  I'm a bit confused on him)
Barty Crouch Jr.--now as good as dead
Severus Snape--spy for Dumbledore
Igor Karkaroff--fled
unamed man on trial with others for torture of Longbottoms--Azkaban

Children who are or may be children of DE's:

Draco Malfoy
Vincent Crabbe
Gregory Goyle
? Nott

Now, interesting thing here is that they're all the same age.  Does this
mean that those four sort of did everything Lucius did?  Or is this a
Voldemort "Go reproduce" order.  I know that's discussed before, but I'm
hypothesizing here.  We know there are two other European schools of
witchcraft and wizardry around that may have Voldemort connections.  One of
course does, Durmstang, with Karkaroff as headmaster.  Beauxbatons is
French, right?  LeStrange is a French name, isn't it?  French connection
there?  So there may be other children the same age there.  We only met
older ones, due to the age limit of the Triwizard championship.

Suppose *all* the DE's had babies the same year--being the same year Harry
was born, which is interesting.  Does Snape have a child somewhere?  Hmm.
Can't see that.  But anyway, what would it *mean*?  And why isn't Nott in
Slytherin?  Or if he is, why doesn't he run with Malfoy and co.?
