What a blessing , this reminds me of my family. We are descendants of George Wythe who was a mentor to Thomas Jefferson. We are all connected in ways we wouldn’t even imagine.

Beautiful testimony! I love to learn about people's history!

She says that she’s a descendant of Sally’s brother, and Sally is her 4x aunt! So how is Jefferson her 5x grandfather? Make it make sense!!!!

I hope her journey is made into a film!

That's a beautiful story finding one's ancestors free or inslaved ones

How is she a descendent of Jefferson if she is a descendent of Sallys brother?!

U might be my cuzzin all the way from Columbus Ohio I'm realted to Thomas Jefferson 2 my aunt shay an cuzzin Doug was on the Oprah show Talkin bout it

Make it less complex. Everyone is equal and has an equal opportunity,

A salesman can say anything to sell anything. 3/5 of a human is a far cry from all men are created equal.

With all of the questions in the comment section this was obviously not clearly explained. The title of the vid is also misleading.   TJ had children by half sisters. Sally is the half sister to his first wife and the full bro of Gayle’s relative, Peter. Therefore, Sally and Peter are ‘half aunt and uncle’ to TJ’s FIRST set of offspring. TJ has a second set of offspring, this time with Sally. So, TJ’s second set of offspring would be Peter’s full nieces and nephews, making TJ the ‘STEP 5x grandfather’ to Gayle. Therefore, Gayle is not related to TJ.

She said, out of her own mouth, "l am the descendant of Sally Hemming's brother, Peter Hemming's." So, she is NOT a descendant of Thomas Jefferson, but rather of Peter Hemming's. This confirms that she is NOT a direct blood relative of Thomas Jefferson. Doctor George Whitehead

So she’s not a descendant of Thomas? She’s just Sally’s niece.

I think she has Jefferson's eyes thats what I immediately thought when i saw them both.

If i heard correctly she said she's from the side of Sally's brother, then she ain't a Jefferson. Yes she's related to Sally not Jefferson..... 🤒

i don't think I would be so proud of that person as my ancestor

She finds her wholeness in knowing she is related to Thomas Jefferson… what does have to do with Jesus? That’s just idolatry and rebellion smh

So she not real Jefferson’s descendant.

Unless Jefferson was Sally’s brothers dad . Jefferson wife’s dad use to give them slaves so Jefferson might of had kids by Sally’s mom also

Okay so she is not blood related to Thomas Jefferson but blood-related to Sally hemings
