Technically, if you reproduce, your genetic memory will live on as long as your bloodline. I think it was Aristotle or Socrates that stated that every man seek immortality. A common man would go about this by having children an making sure his next generation could follow suit, but this was futile and at somepoint this man would be forgotten and lost in time. A great man would live on though his ideas an virtues. Also, how do you know what happens when you die?
If you have children they are not you, you may some of the same genes but you do not control then like you control your body, so they are not you. It still doesn't matter if your genetic memory will survive because you as a person will not. I do not know what happens after death but all the theories about after life or reincarnation are just ideas that just some people made, without any evidence. I think it is more likely to not feel anything like before you were born, rather than an idea that people made.
Children are exactly half of you. So they are definitely part you. An genetic memory is just as valid as your temporary ones except it last longer than you or your body.
