About Carl Smith Jefferson
Carl Smith Jefferson
Chief Counsel for the Milwaukee Railroad Company
Find A Grave Memorial ID # 98024002
Several years ago, during a slow week in the summer, I read through a number of old alumni directories. One person who did not catch my attention graduated in 1896 and had gone on to a long, successful career with the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad.
His name, Carl Smith Jefferson, did not mean anything to me until stories began appearing in 1998 about possible descendants of President Thomas Jefferson. It is now virtually certain that Carl Jefferson was a grandson of Thom-as Jefferson by Jefferson's slave, Sally Hemings. Carl probably never knew that he was a grandson, and, of course, neither did we.
