Hestia the daughter of Coronus and Rhea was the Goddess of hearth and home. Hestia was the first-born child of Cronus and Rhea out of the six children they had. She was also one of the six children that were swallowed by Cronus and later vomited back up as fully-grown adults. She had many brothers and sisters including Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus. She was never married and had no children. She was the most loved Olympian of them all. She was also the most kind and caring. Hestia was never married nor had children because she chose to remain a virgin for eternity. When the gods Apollon and Poseidon asked for her hand in marriage she begged Zeus to let her remain an eternal virgin. Zeus agreed and she took place at his royal heart hence her name being the goddess of the hearth. http://messagenet.com/myth/bios/hestia.html Stewart, Michael. “Hestia”, Greek Mythology: From the Iliad to the Fall of the Last Tyrant.
