You are correct.
And not just in Catholic doctrine.
The sins of the father are inherited by the son.
Original sin is the moral corruption inherited by all men from Adam.
Which is why Jesus could not have ANY descendant of Adam for a father.
Jesus was without sin.

You know your Augustine. All churches of orthodox doctrine accept this teaching.
