When fiction becomes fact: Thomas Jefferson fathered dozens of children with his slaves.

 

The story that Jefferson slept with his slaves appears to be mostly rumor since the entire story is completely unsubstantiated. Recent DNA tests show that members of the Jefferson family, which was large and extended, more than probably fathered children with slaves, but there is no evidence the children were Thomas Jefferson’s offspring.
