No, Thomas Jefferson has NOT been proved to be their ancestor. The DNA only proved that a Jefferson male was the father of Hemings’ children, and there were several possibilities.
Everyone is forgetting about Randolph, Thomas’ brother, who was much more likely to consort with the slaves.
Do some more study.
BINGO. Randolph was the guy, but Thomas was the one the leftists have focused on over the past 50 years.
Our first visit to Monticello some years ago was just delightful. We also enjoyed the second one, but during our third visit, about 5 years ago, we vowed not to return. The place was awash in leftist nonsense, and they were presenting this story of Jefferson’s relationship with Hemmings as fact.
