Dolly Madison. With British troops bearing down on Washington DC intent on burning The White House she rescued valuable documents which included the original copy of the Constitution.
She barely made it out of DC with the British hot on her heels. Now there’s a gal with hair on her chest.
I’ll agree with you on that. And as far as beauty goes, she was beautiful for the 18th/19th century.
Yes, she was a marvelous First Lady and introduced an early form of ice cream, at her dinner parties.
I agree. I think it was Dolly Madison who created the role of the first lady.
Good things to bring up. Fabulous stuff.
