Martha Washington
Martha Washington was the first-ever first lady, as she was the wife of the first-ever president of the United States, George Washington.
Basically, she was the one that set a precedent as to what it meant to be the first lady of the U.S.
One of the most important steps she took was to initiate a weekly reception, which was held on Friday evenings, for anyone who would want to attend.
At these meetings, members of Congress, visiting dignitaries, and men and women from the local community were expected at the presidential mansion.
After being presented to Mrs. Washington, the guests had refreshments, talked with each other, and mingled.

Its interesting to note, all of these ladies were married to Democrats… how about Melania Trump, who was an advocate for cyberbulling?
Or Barbara Bush, who pushed for literacy, help for the homeless, AIDS victims, the elderly?
Nancy Reagan- advocate for the “Just Say No” initiative….
President Obama was ONE of the BEST & his First Lady too!! I want them BACK.
my all time favorite is Melania Trump
Historically for all she did and for the support, guidance, and advice she gave her husband. Along with all her duties, responsibilities and all of this during what is considered the most traumatic time for this country and longest time of doing it as first lady and continuing all the civic duties, functions and responsibilities
in serving the American people after his death. Eleanor Roosevelt is by far the most important and impactful if not the greatest first lady of all time and probably forever.
Michelle O’Bama
The very best and classiest First Lady is hands down, Melania Trump and 2nd would be Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. After them, the rest are all about the same.
You completely left out Melania Trump, who has been the classiest First Lady – perhaps ever. She carries herself so well, always looks impeccable in whatever she wears, has classy taste not only in her attire, but in the ways she decorated the White House & hosted the many White House functions. Michelle Obama couldn’t touch her with a 10 ft pole! Melania is probably the only First Lady who spoke fluently so many other languages & was completely comfortable in other nations as well as America. Shame on you for overlooking this beautiful lady!
No Melania Trump????…. Who da thunk it?!
You left out the best first Lady Mrs Trump. You must be a far left anti Milania Trump. She was as polite,kind,and beautiful first Lady.
Eleanor Roosevelt, Michelle Obama, Jackie Kennedy, in that order, and all three were examples of what a 1st lady should be.
Jackline Kennedy and Meliana Trump were my favorites. That racist bitch obama was ashamed of the US!!!
Where is Melania Trump in this list? I am sure most Conservative women loved her as I did. She brought classy back reminded me Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.
Michell Obamba, really???? She looked like she always had on dresses from Walmart, she’s racist and a super bitch. I see Melania Trump was not there. SHE was the BEST, so was he.
You left out Milania Trump. Much more elegant than Michele Obama.
