The history. The history left out and not explained when I was in school. History she relates without politics or attitude about race. So enlightening and freeing.
Jefferson passed laws prohibiting slavery, his slaves were family, he educated them, they had jobs like by today's standards, he saved them from brutal slave traders. and further advocated against slavery. I'm the great granddaughter of Thomas Jefferson I, who is the Grandfather of President Jefferson. Jefferson I owned all of the lands that were inherited. From what I've read on the DNA results are that it proved they are Jeffersons, but it did not prove it was President Jefferson's line, it could be his Brother. Martha Jefferson Goode and Colonel Bennett Goode are my Grandparents. We welcome all cousins in this lineage and so glad that we have them all.
That is so cool that you are related to him. I really want to know who my famous relatives are. But while the Y-chromosomes alone did not confirm which Jefferson was the father, there is so much other historical evidence that rules out all other candidates.
