Good morning, Pip - I was sure this would interest you, being the History Buff that you are. Wish I'd had 'room' to include more pics and more bios, but felt the thread was long enough with these few (not to mention, I had run out of steam myself - cropping and editing and uploading those that made the cut.) :)

Thanks! :^)

My favorite first ladies are, from the 19th centuray, Dolley Madison:

From the 20th, a tossup between Edith Roosevelt and Barbara Bush:

FRom the 18th centuary, both Abigail Adams and Martha Washington:

I don't need to tell you the one from the 21st centuary!
