Thomas Jefferson


     I really didn't have any problems finding information about Thomas
Jefferson.  On the Internet, I just did a search for Thomas Jefferson, and I got
all kinds of information, from the Thomas Jefferson University to his
autobiography.

     If I was the teacher, I would have allowed the students to print off of
the web pages.  It isn't illegal, and it would make it much easier and more
efficient to hit command-p and hit return than copy down 5 pages of information
longhand and not be able to write legibly for the rest of the day because of a
numb hand.  I also would have given a little more time than a week.

     All of the information I have came from the Internet.  I didn't use one
book to find information.  I think that it is much smarter to try to find
information electronically than it is to go to a library, do a search, hope they
have it in stock, walk around trying to find the book, go check it out, drive
home, stop at McDonald's, and finally site down and read it.  By the time you
get home and have time to read it, you're too tired to read the book, let alone
do a report with it.

April 13, 1743. His dad, Peter Jefferson and his mom Jane Randolph were members
of the most famous Virginia families.      Besides being born rich, Thomas
Jefferson, was well educated. He attended the College of William and Mary and
read law (1762-1767) with George Wythe, the best law teacher of his time in
Virginia.  He went into to the bar in 1767 and practiced until 1774, when the
courts were closed by the American Revolution.

     He had inherited a considerable landed estate from his father, and
doubled it by a happy marriage on Jan. 1, 1772, to Martha Wayles Skelton. He was
elected to the House of Burgesses, when he was 25, he served there from 1769 to
1774, proving himself to be an effective committeeman and skillful draftsman,
though not good at speaking
