If I remember correctly earlier articles about this, had Hemmings' descendants given permission, the owner would have been able to use the name, but they refused permission. As the article said, the JC is a private organization and can set whatever rules they want, as long as the names aren't in violation of laws against discrimination.

Shame- what were the names involved in the pedigree? Colonial Affair and Jefferson's Secret? Would have been a perfect name.
