I grew up in the area one of the familys lived, was big news when someone come out and collected dna samples.

Funny thing is, the family has always claimed a connection there, which is why someone finally come out to dna test them.

We all know these guys were fucking their slaves, do you have doubt? They used them like tools to be disposed of and it seems a few of them even fell in love and married them.

Just happens this family had no genetic ties, I doubt thats true for every owner.

Wouldnt shock me to find out they fudged the results as well or something.

This article from 2018 still claims a connection.

After a DNA test in 1998, the nonprofit foundation, which owns Monticello, determined that there was a “high probability” that Jefferson fathered at least one of Hemings’s children, and that he likely fathered them all. The new exhibit asserts Jefferson’s paternity as a fact.

“The words ‘rape’ and ‘rapist,’ what it conjures up is not a nuanced situation,” she said. “There were other relationships like theirs which were clearly love matches.”

Some couples moved to Ohio, where slavery was outlawed, she said, adding: “Jefferson wasn’t that. But he wasn’t violently accosting Sally Hemings every day for 30 years.”

At reunions of the descendants of Monticello’s slaves, the question of whether Jefferson is guilty of rape has sparked heated arguments.

“I really don’t think slaves had a choice,” said Rosemary Medley Ghoston, a retired hairdresser in Ohio who discovered in the 1980s, through genealogical research, that she was a descendant of Madison Hemings. “Maybe if it was not rape, it was a duty that she had to fulfill.”

By the way if you think its ok for a white man to love a black woman but think its wrong for a black man and white woman to marry, is that not the definition of hypocrite? I dont care who marrys who, as long as they do it because they love each other! that is the only thing that matters in this world!
