The Three Jeffersonian Presidents were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln. They have accomplished a lot of things in their time of presidency. This post is about the things each of the Jeffersonian Presidents did.
The first Jeffersonian president George Washington was a hero to our country before he was even president. He was a soldier and a farmer outside of presidency. He led his army during the Revolutionary War for eight years.
Once he was done with Britain in the Revolutionary War, he went back to Virginia to resume his normal life. Then America decided they needed a leader that will guide them through war and everything else. They chose George Washington who became president in 1789.

Thomas Jefferson also played parts in America’s problems with England. He is also known as the main author of the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson was also the first secretary of the state.
During The president Jefferson’s time in the office, (8 years) the US doubled mostly due to the buying of Louisiana’s land. After Britain burned down the US capitol, Jefferson wrote books about the congress. The library these books were in is now named after him.
Abraham Lincoln grew up as a young, hard working child. Throughout childhood, he lived on a farm and worked a lot. This helped him learn valuable skills that would help him as a president.
Once he became president, he made the Republican party a big thing again that would be used to this day. On new years day of 1863, he freed all the slaves in the USA by writing the Emancipation Proclamation, which made slavery illegal and freed every single slave.
