About this quiz

The list follows the White House's own roll of First Ladies up to October 2026. Not all were presidents' wives in office: Harriet Lane was the niece of James Buchanan, who never married.

  • Frances Cleveland and Melania Trump each appear twice, because their husbands served two terms that were not back to back.
  • John Tyler and Woodrow Wilson each have two First Ladies on the list.
  • Melania Trump is the second First Lady to return to the role after a gap; Frances Cleveland was the first.

Sources

  1. [1]The White House (National Archives). First Ladies.
  2. [2]The White House (National Archives). First Families.
  3. [3]The White House. First Lady Melania Trump.

Note on the data. Names and order follow the White House's list of First Ladies as archived by the National Archives, which runs from Martha Washington to Melania Trump and, in the later archive, Jill Biden. The current White House site names Melania Trump as First Lady again from January 2025. Checked on 3 October 2026. Everyday names are shown (Bess for Elizabeth Truman, Lady Bird for Claudia Johnson), with the full names from the White House list accepted. The list includes Martha Jefferson and others who died before their husbands took office, as the White House list does.
