Growing Patriots · Ep. 112 – Abigail Adams

Abigail Adams was born in Weymouth, Massachusetts. 

She was born here, in this 17th-century saltbox-style home. It's a museum now!

If it wasn't for Boston watchmaker Richard Cranch, John and Abigail might never have met! 

He married Abigail's sister, Mary. Mary Cranch also had some things to say about politics! 

Abigail and John Adams were married by her father in his church – First Church in Weymouth. 

The couple had six children, including:

Nabby 

John Quincy

Charles

Thomas Boylston

While John Adams was away building a new nation, Abigail was not only keeping things on track at home – she was making things even better. 

One reason we know so much about the lives of Abigail and John Adams is because of their letters, which show a relationship of respect and love.
