TEXT 1
Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Jefferson wished to be remembered for three achievements in his
public life. He had served as governor of Virginia, as U.S. minister to France, as
secretary of state under George Washington, as vice-president in the administra-
tion of John Adams, and as president of the United States from 1801 to 1809.
On his tombstone, however, which he designed and for which he wrote the in-
scription, there is no mention of these offices. Rather, it reads that Thomas Jef-
ferson was "author of the Declaration of American Independence, of the Statute
of Virginia for religious freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia" and,
as he requested, "not a word more." Historians might want to add other accom-
plishments – for example, his distinction as an architect, naturalist, and linguist –
but in the main they would concur with his own assessment.
Early Life
Jefferson was born at Shadwell in what is now Albemarle County, Va., on
Apr. 13, 1743. He treated his pedigree lightly, but his mother, Jane Randolph Jef-
ferson, came from one of the first families of Virginia; his father, Peter Jefferson,
was a well-to-do landowner, although not in the class of the wealthiest planters.
Jefferson attended the College of William and Mary and then studied law with
George Wythe. In 1769 he began six years of service as a representative in the
Virginia House of Burgesses. The following year he began building Monticello
on land inherited from his father. The mansion, which he designed in every de-
tail, took years to complete, but part of it was ready for occupancy when he mar-
ried Martha Wayles Skelton on Jan. 1, 1772. They had six children, two of
whom survived into adulthood: Martha Washington Jefferson (1772-1836); Jane
