He had two daughters that lived to adulthood:

Martha "Patsy" Jefferson Randolph and Mary "Polly" Jefferson Eppes.

He also had three other daughters and a son who all died before they were three. The son was not named , two of the daughters were named Lucy and one Jane.

There is DNA evidence that he or his nephew fathered a child with a slave, Sally Hemings.

Thomas Jefferson had six children with his wife, Martha Wayles Jefferson:

  • Martha Jefferson Randolph (1772-1836),
  • Jane Randolph (1774-1775),
  • a stillborn or unnamed son (1777),
  • Mary Jefferson Eppes (1778-1804),
  • Lucy Elizabeth (1780-1781), and
  • (another) Lucy Elizabeth (1782-1785).

Only Martha and Mary lived to adulthood.

There is a controversy about several children of Sally Hemings, a slave on Jefferson's plantation. According to Monticello records those children were: Harriet (1795-1797) Beverly Hemmings (1798-?) Harriet Hemings (1801-?) Madison Hemings (1805-1877) and Eston Hemings (1808-1866). DNA testing has concluded there is a Jefferson connection to Eston Hemings. However, since the DNA was not taken from a direct male descendant of Thomas Jefferson (there were none), it can only conclusively prove a Jefferson fathered Eston, not conclusively that Thomas Jefferson did. There are, in fact, eight possible "Jeffersons", male relatives of Thomas who could possible have been the father of Sally's youngest child.
