Learn more about the earliest First Ladies who set the standard for all those who came after them. Some succeeded, some failed, some never were and some simply wanted no part of it. We’ll take a look at the wives of sixth through eleventh Presidents: Louisa Adams, Rachel Jackson, Hannah Van Buren and Angelica Van Buren, Anna Harrison, Leticia Tyler and Julia Tyler, and Sarah Polk. All are fascinating women who lived interesting lives, and though each had an impact on her husband and his career, only two, the courageous Louisa and the amazing Sarah, left significant marks on the role of First Lady.
