While Hemings' room, which was only 14 feet and 8 inches wide by 13 feet long, was located near Jefferson's own bedroom, it went undiscovered for decades because it had been converted into a men's bathroom in 1941—a slight that has not gone unnoticed by many.In 1787, Sally, aged 14, accompanied Polly to London and then to Paris, where the widowed Jefferson, aged 44 at the time, was serving as the United States Minister to France. Hemings spent two years there.Mary Lee Brady-Atkins said Thursday. Brady-Atkins is the oldest living relative of Sally Hemings of Monticello.

How did Jefferson treat slaves : Jefferson wrote that he wished to ameliorate the conditions of slavery and treat people less harshly than other violent slaveholders, but he still forced people to labor for the wealth and luxury of his white family.
Was Sally Hemings smart
But in addition to being intelligent and bold, Hemings was savvy; when Jefferson argued for the Hemingses' return to the United States, Hemings negotiated freedom for her children and "extraordinary privileges" for herself, as her son described them.

There are no known images of Sally Hemings from her lifetime, and her appearance was described by only two individuals who knew her: “Sally was mighty near white Sally was very handsome, long straight hair down her back.” “Light colored and decidedly good looking.” Through the 20th century, some historians accepted the possibility of a Jefferson-Hemings connection and a few gave it credence, but most Jefferson scholars found the case for such a relationship unpersuasive. Over the years, however, belief in a Thomas Jefferson-Sally Hemings relationship was perpetuated in private.

There are only two known descriptions of Sally Hemings. Additionally, if she had stayed in France, Hemings would have been separated from the rest of her family.
