Thomas Jefferson Thomas Jefferson is a very interesting character. He seemed like an interesting person so I decided he was my favorite founder and I wanted to write about him. Jefferson was born in 1743 on April 3 in Shadwell, Albemarle County, Viginia. He grew up on a family plantation. Peter Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson's father, grew tobacco and wheat on this farm. His father had slaves working on his farms and married Jane Randolph Jefferson. He went to a private school and eventualy went to college. He had six brothers and sisters. Soon after graduating from school, Jeffersongot married to Martha Wayles Skelton and had six children, 1 boy and 5 girls. Sadly, only two of his children lived to aldulthood and the rest died ay a young age. Also, three of the children died at birth because of some complications. He was a republican, which was common things at the time. Sadly, Jefferson believed in slavery and gladly supported it. Thomas was considered a tall man way back then, though he was only 6'21/2". ﻿Jefferson spreaded rumors about a lot of people and it was hurtful to them. ﻿The most important thing to know about Thomas Jefferson is that he wrote the Declaration of Independence. ﻿He was an inventor and a great one at that. For example, he invented ﻿the dumbwaiter, macaroni and cheese, the hideaway bed, etc. Thomas Jefferson's work  Was in presidency during: Now you hopfully know more about this wonderful founding father and want to learn more about him.
