White House Children Fill Presidents with Joy Across Ages
A historical survey notes how White House life mirrored the era of each president through the presence of children. It traces the Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Van Buren, Harrison, Tyler, Polk, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan, Lincoln, Johnson, Grant, Garfield, Arthur, Cleveland, Harrison, McKinley, Roosevelt and other families, detailing how offspring shaped domestic life and public sentiment, with notable weddings, births and the lasting hope that babies bring brightness to governance. The article highlights how Roosevelt's era stands out for its large family and public warmth, concluding with a remark on the season's clam harvest of 60,603 barrels of mackerel.
