This home’s legacy runs even deeper through Strong’s stepdaughter, Abigail Powers, who later married Millard Fillmore, the 13th President of the United States. As First Lady from 1850 to 1853, Abigail is credited with founding the first White House Library, leaving an indelible mark on American cultural heritage.
