George and Martha Washington met soon after she was widowed. They were married at her home in New Kent County, Virginia, and moved to Washington’s home in Mount Vernon several months later. Theirs began as a traditional marriage in a semi-aristocratic society and blossomed into a strong relationship that was tested by the events of the American Revolution and Washington’s terms as the first President of the United States. They were at the forefront of events that changed history and shaped the United States, and led by example of what a marriage of people of their stature should be. Together, they set many precedents that are still followed.
