Hemings family
Thomas Jefferson trusted many people in the Hemings family.  When he was away from Monticello, he would allow the Hemings men to leave, choose other people for whom to work, and keep all their money.  The law of Virginia at the time said he did not have to do this.  Jefferson freed several people in the Hemings family.  He did not get along with all the Hemingses.  He had a fight with Martin Hemings.
