The First FamilyWho are those people who lived in the White House, making appearances and speeches and promises and mistakes? To understand them, you must get to know the spouses, children, and even siblings of U.S. Presidents, past and present.
Photos of the first families reflect the face of America throughout history. Although not every president has been married and not every presidential family includes children, the majority of the nation's leaders have raised kids while simultaneously acting as commander in chief.
Some presidents raised their kids to take on their legacy; John and Abigail Adams's first son, John Quincy Adams, became the sixth president of the United States. The Kennedy and Bush families both created American dynasties as well. Other first children served the country in conflict or stayed out of the spotlight completely.
The following list features photos of presidents' kids, from George and Martha Washington's family to Donald Trump's famous sons and daughters. Not every presidential child is highlighted, but the leaders' living descendants are occasionally still in the news.
