Hobb never says where the child was taken and what the child was/was a result of.

Any ideas on this or am I just reading into this too much?
I assume this was because the Bingtown traders were related to the Rain River traders, and had occasionally interbred, and every so often you'd get these genetic throwbacks. The child would have been taken and raised by the Rain River traders.
