Martha Dandridge Custis Washington (1731 – 1802) was the wife of George Washington and the inaugural first lady of the United States.[1]

In 1781, following the Siege of Yorktown, George acquired an Apple of Eden from a captured British Army officer.[2] It caused him to have a number of dreams, and in one of these visions, George stayed with Martha at home in Mount Vernon tending to his tobacco fields, with no war going on.[3]

On 14 December 1799, the day of his death, George mentioned Martha on his journal, saying that "Soon, I shall join my dearest Martha,"[4] even though she outlived him by two years.[1] George's will provided for the more than 200 slaves he and Martha owned to be freed upon both of their deaths.[5]
