Jefferson was known to be a very intelligent articulate young lawyer who was active in the unrest against British rule.

While Ben Franklin, John Adams and others helped Jefferson come up with the basic ideas to go into the Declaration, Jefferson wrote it himself. A few changes were made by Franklin and Adams, and then it was done!
