Thomas Jefferson married to Martha Wayles in January 1, 1772

In his state, Virginia, at the time, it was not permitted for a slave owner to free his slaves. His first attempted bill, which was defeated, would have given slaveowners the right to free their slaves. He also submitted a bill which would have abolished the slave trade, which also did not pass.

Thomas Jefferson was the first to be inaugurated in the new capital --in 1801.

Jefferson wanted Monroe, along with the US minister to France, Robert Livingston, to negotiate the purchase of New Orleans. Napoleon instead offered all of the French claims in the Mississippi valley, and the 1803 agreement became known as the Louisiana Purchase.

Thomas Jefferson was opposed to federalism, which controlled the federal government and called for national banks and tariffs. Jefferson also disagreed with the idea of implied powers which gave ambiguity to what the government was allowed to do with its power. In response to this, Jefferson created the Democratic-Republican Party.

The first U.S. President to be inaugurated in Washington DC was Thomas Jefferson, on March 4, 1801.

Citizens feared that a central bank placed too much power in the hands of the federal government.

After Thomas Jefferson died, a member of his family found instructions that Jefferson had left as to what should be placed on his tombstone. Jefferson considered these three accomplishments the most important to him, and he hoped he would be remembered for them.

HERE WAS BURIED THOMAS JEFFERSON AUTHOR OF THE DECLARATION OF AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE OF THE STATUTE OF VIRGINIA FOR RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND FATHER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA

Jefferson, of course, accomplished much more during his lifetime. He served as colonial and state representative and governor of Virginia; held various public offices, including ambassador and Secretary of State, Vice President, and 3rd President of the United States. He was also instrumental in obtaining the Louisiana Territory for the United States, which doubled the size of the nation, and getting Congress to appropriate funds for the Lewis and Clark Expedition. He was also a noted scientist and inventor and agriculturalist.

He was thin but was 6' 2.5 " tall, so I would guess he weighed around 170.

Thomas Jefferson was one of ten children born to his parents between 1740 and 1755. He had 6 sisters and 1 brother who lived to maturity. He had 2 younger brothers who died as infants.

Bank of the United States... I'm 100% sure.

· Successes:

1) Washington's nationalization of the states' debts, one way of consolidating and legitimizing the central government (under the new Constitution)

2) Washington's putting down the Whiskey Rebellion, a direct attack upon consolidating and legitimizing the central government

3) Washington voluntarily surrendered his office at the end of two terms...a VERY novel concept in late 18th Century political thinking...and allowed John Adams to be elected.

Failures

1) The XYZ Affair---Francophiles in the American government (read Thomas Jefferson) almost let the French undermine the new USA

2) The Alien and Sedition Acts---almost created a dictatorship

No. Thomas Jefferson was one of the Anti-Federalists, and supported the Articles of Confederation over The Constitution, which favored state governments and a very limited national government (He was actually away in France during the Constitutional Convention).
In his first term as president he suspended the Alien and Sedition Acts, reduced the federal bureaucracy, cut expenses, reduced the army and canceled the navy expansion program. Federal income was reduced to land sales and custom duties.
Contrary to these weak national government ideals though, he did purchase the Louisiana Territory from France and imposed The Embargo of 1807 later in his second term.

John Adams didnt exactly keep the navy strong. He was the start of the American navy. Thomas Jefferson actually canceled the producution of the navy early in his presidencey for trade related reasons. However he later began to finish the navy to battle pirate ship raiders that were hindering trade to Europe and the carribean.
