Thomas Jefferson Randolph (1792-1875), oldest son of Martha Jefferson Randolph and Thomas Mann Randolph, and favorite grandson of Thomas Jefferson, served six terms in the Virginia House of Delegates and became a member and eventually Rector of the University of Virginia Board of Visitors.[1] Jefferson personally guided his grandson's education and consequentially gave Randolph seventy-two titles from Wythe's library—almost twice as many as any other recipient other than Jefferson himself.
