From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jane Randolph Jefferson (1720-1776) was the wife of Peter Jefferson, cousin of Peyton Randolph, daughter of Isham Randolph, and the mother of Thomas Jefferson.

Randolph was born in the Tower Hamlet of Shadwell, a maritime neighborhood of London. Her family moved to Virginia when she was young, though it is unclear from available sources whether she immediately accompanied them or joined them later.
