National Historic First Ladies Day Trail

 

The National First Ladies Day Trail is a landmark initiative of the National First Ladies Day Commission that connects historically significant sites across the country associated with America’s first ladies. From birthplaces and childhood homes to museums, gravesites, and public landmarks, the Trail offers a comprehensive journey through the lives and legacies of these influential women, highlighting their lasting contributions to American History and civic life.

The Trail reflects the NFLDC’s goal of honoring first ladies not only through education but also by encouraging civic engagement, and a deeper appreciation of these influential figures in American History. The Trail enhances and complements the Commission’s vision of a lasting public celebration of their legacies across the nation.
