He cant be. Thomas Jefferson was a Democratic Republican. Thomas Jefferson began as an Anti-Federalist. During the Presidency of George Washington, he was a member of the 'Opposition' faction. Eventually he joined the Republican party - not to be mixed up with the Republican party that was established 1856-today. These republicans were referred to as 'Democrats' by the Federalists, who thought their ideals were more mob-rule than true republicanism. Today they are sometimes called the Jeffersonian Republicans. This even, does not quite fit, since the party underwent many changes. IE, in 1825, the two parties were considered 'Jackson Democrats and the 'Adams Republicans'. By 1829, The Republicans/Jefferson's party had become the "Democratic Republicans" (The name that still sticks today in referring to his party). The Adams Republicans had become the "National Republicans." By 1835 or so, the Democratic Republicans had dropped the Republic and just become "Democrats". The National Republicans had become the "Whigs." In 1850, when the Democratic Party won the Missouri compromise, a major pro-slavery battle, the Whigs lost their prominence. Most Whigs joined with several other minor parties to form the "Republicans" (The republican party of today), while some joined the Democrats. The Republicans became a major thorn in the side to the pro-slavery Democrats, launching their first platform in 1856 focusing primarily on civil rights. So to answer your question more succinctly: He was an anti-Federalist/Opposition/'Republican' (In the sense of what became later the Democratic Republicans or Democrats or 'Jeffersonian Republicans', not modern Republicans.)

After the dissolution of the Federalist party, former federalists split into both Republicans and Democrats, but the majority became Republicans.
If by conservatives you mean Republicans they did not exist yet and would not until they year 1854. After the party was created thtey were anti-slavery as opposed to democrats who were pro slavery. Republicans had a lot of support in the north and the democrats had support in the south during the civil war.

The north was republican, the south was democrat. Prior to the civil war the two parties were actually the same party (Democratic Republicans), and around the time the country split the parties split. The Democrats were proslavery and so the south, the Republicans were anti-slavery and so the north. Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican President. Even though the first half of the 1900s the Democrats were the prosegregation anti-equal rights party, it wasn't until the 1950s and 60s that they changed, now of course they try to pin those things on Republicans.
