since Jefferson and sally had an ongoing sexual relationship there is little to prove that he was not the father...

This statement is poppy cock, a plain and simple lie. Jefferson never had sex with any of his slaves.

It is awful how modern day ignorant people can spread a lie and people will think it the truth.

There is a book published that contains all of Jeffersons letters from his own hand. The letters are interesting and put this shameful accusation to bed. Randolph was diddling with the slaves and Jefferson threw him off the estate because of it. People of the day knew it, it took idiots of 200 years later to perpetuate a lie that was never believed in Jeffersons lifetime althogh it was hinted at by some newspapers during Jeffersons first run for Presidency.

There are numerous publications who claim that Thomas Jefferson sired Sally Hemmings children because of a DNA report that found that there was a “Y” chromozone in the Hemmings line that came from the Jefferson line. The report however states that it could have come nearly any Jefferson but the reporters all leave that out and conclude it came from Thomas Jefferson. Shameful.

People of today just don’t understand the strength of a mans reputation 200 years ago. Jefferson was all about his.

Good summary - MSM let’s people state the story as fact ... when evidence suggest the exact opposite.
