Alan Rock's Trivia

On April 23, 1789 President-elect and Mrs. George Washington moved into American’s first Executive Mansion. Where was it and what was it called? A: The Franklin House in New York. That’s great. Everybody needs a home. Even the Father of Our Country needs a place to hang his teeth.

Who was the only U.S. president who never married? A: President James Buchanan was born in Pennsylvania on April 23, 1791. So, with no wife in the White House, who do you suppose ran the country?

Which U.S. President’s hobby was crocheting? A: President James Buchanan but he tried to keep it a secret. He figured if word got out that the President crocheted, everybody’d want an afghan.
