Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were in France until 1789 and 1788 respectively during the creation of the U.S. Constitution (1787). James Madison is "known" as the Father of the Constitution because his input was closest to the resulting components. Plus because kept the best notes, he gave it voice after 1826. The proceedings were kept secret per the Rules Committee and only released after Madison died.
