Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States, one of the signatories on the Declaration of Independence, and its principal author.

Background
Jefferson Rock, a geological formation in Harpers Ferry, was named as such after Jefferson's visit to the landmark in 1783. The Jefferson Memorial, a 20th-century monument built in Jefferson's honor, is the site of Project Purity.

Jefferson appears as an answer to a pop quiz question in the National Archives' terminals as the principle author of the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson is also the correct answer to a question in the Codebreaker exam at the Pioneer Scout camp, having been a Founding Father who invented a disk cipher. In their handbook, the Pioneer Scouts cited Thomas Jefferson and Meriwether Lewis as role models.

Appearances
Thomas Jefferson is mentioned in Fallout 3 and in the Fallout 76 Wild Appalachia update.
