Thomas Jefferson's slave and mother of 6 of his children
|
Sarah (Sally) Hemings (c. 1773–1835) was an enslaved woman of mixed race owned by President Thomas Jefferson.
Multiple lines of evidence indicate that Jefferson had a long-term sexual relationship with Hemings, and historians now broadly agree that he was the father of her six children. Hemings was a half-sister of Jefferson's wife, Martha Jefferson (née Wayles). Four of Hemings's children survived into adulthood. Hemings died in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 1835.
