href="/wiki/Crown_colony" title="Crown colony">crown colonies</a> in <a href="/wiki/British_America" title="British America">the Americas</a> which defined the legal status of children born there; the

Some years later, it is believed the widower Jefferson took Sally Hemings (then between 14 and 16 years of age) as a concubine.

As their mother was enslaved, they, too, were enslaved from birth.<sup id="cite_ref-Hemings_15-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hemings-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg/300px-House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg" decoding="async" width="300" height="312" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg/450px-House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/85/House_That_Jeff_Built_p8.jpg 2x" data-file-width="526" data-file-height="547" /></a><figcaption>A slave-trader sells his mixed-race relative into slavery.

Jefferson allowed the two eldest to "escape" and freed the two youngest in his will.

He had married a mixed-race woman in Virginia, and both their sons served as regular Union soldiers.
