William Wallace had no known issue. His bloodline ended with him. That of his followers did not.

William Wallace had no known issue.

He had no documented issue, but there is an oral tradition that he had a daughter who survived to adulthood.

His bloodline ended with him.

a) That's a much stronger statement than that he had "no known issue," and b) it's only true if you mean his direct line. Wallace had a brother, John, who fathered children before he was murdered by the English. Those children have modern descendants.
