Anna Harrison

Anna Harrison was the wife of President William Henry Harrison and served as the First Lady of the United States from 1841, though she largely remained at home and did not actively participate in public duties. She was born in 1775 and was known for her strong character and dedication to family. As First Lady, her role was limited due to her age and health, and she is remembered as a supportive partner during her husband's brief presidency, which lasted only a month before his death.
