It is well worth the time to read the historical report published by Monticello on their research into the possible relationship between Mr. Jefferson and Sally Hemmings.

Additionally, last year they found Sally Hemmings’ quarters when they were restoring an area of the house that had been turned in to a men’s bathroom early in the 20th century. They are now in the processor of restoring it.

I went to LINK you provided. The title was: "Slave quarters of Sally Hemings, the maid who gave birth to six of Thomas Jefferson’s children ..." which right off the top is untrue - DNA only one of her kids had a Jefferson line, and it could have been Thomas Jeferson's brother's line.
