Step 1 : Introduction to the question "1. Which domestic slave reputedly had Thomas Jefferson's illegitimate children?"



...1. Beverly Hemings 2. Betty Hemings 3. Harriet Hemings 4. Sally Hemings Sarah 'Sally' Hemings was a slave born around 1773 and owned by Thomas Jefferson "through his wife's inheritance".

There has been an on-going controversy with regard to the paternity of Ms. Hemings' progeny and, in 1998, a DNA study found a match between the Jefferson lineage and a descendant of Sally Hemings' last son, Eston. Jefferson freed all four of the children as they came of age. Hemings never married but lived to see a grandchild "born in a house which her sons owned".

[Answer] 3. "Rain Drops Keep Fallin' on My Head" is a Number One song by B.J. Thomas and is from which Revisionist Western's soundtrack?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. "Rain Drops Keep Fallin' on My Head" is a Number One song by B.J. Thomas and is from which Revisionist Western's soundtrack?"



...1. Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull's History Lesson 2. The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean 3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 4. Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here "Rain Drops Keep Fallin' on My Head" is an Oscar winning song from "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". It was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. The song was a Number One on three US charts (Billboard Hot 100, Billboard Adult Contemporary, and Cash Box Top 100), two Canadian charts (RPM Top Singles, RPM Adult Contemporary), and the Norwegian Singles chart. The movie stars Paul Newman (Butch) and Robert Redford (Sundance). It follows the exploits of the outlaws through the years as they rob trains and then are hunted by Pinkertons. They then leave for Bolivia where they die after robbing a payroll mule train and are cornered by Bolivian police and cavalry. In 2003 it was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation because of its cultural significance. The movie is considered Revisionist because the outlaws are the heroes and are portrayed as fun loving characters when in reality even if they were not killers themselves, they ran with men who were. Together the pair along with other members of the Wild Bunch performed the longest string of successful bank and train robberies in the Old West.

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What were the first words spoken by Thomas Edison when he made the first recording of the human voice?"

Edison stumbled on one of his greatest inventions–the phonograph–while working on a way to record telephone communication at his laboratory in Menlo Park, New Jersey. His work led him to experiment with a stylus on a tinfoil cylinder, which, to his surprise, played back the words he had recorded, “Mary had a little lamb”. Public demonstrations of the phonograph made the inventor world famous, and he was dubbed the “Wizard of Menlo Park.”
