There is only one distant heir for Helga Hufflepuff that is mentioned in the books. Hepzibah Smith is a descendant- just like Tom Riddle (Voldemort) is a descendant of Salazar Slytherin- but there is never any mention of Hufflepuff's children like with Rowena Ravenclaw (who is mother to Helena Ravenclaw, whose ghost is known as The Grey Lady).

Helga Hufflepuff's cup is a small, golden cup with the Hufflepuff badger on it. It is one of Voldemort's Horcruxes; in the seventh book, Harry, Ron, and Hermione break into Gringotts (with the help of the goblin Griphook) and steal it from Bellatrix Lestrange's vault. Later in the book, Hermione destroys it with basilisk fangs from the Chamber of Secrets.
The other Horcruxes are Marvolo Gaunt's ring, Rowena Ravenclaw's diadem and Helga Hufflepuff's cup. Godric Gryffindor's sword was not a Horcurx.
