A war hero from the Revolutionary War, George Washington was known for being the first president and for his farewell address. He is not noted to be one of the best presidents, but he is noted for setting a foundation for what a president should be like.
How MANY presidents were there from George to George? There were forty one presidents in between George Washington and George Bush.

The former presidents of America both represent the number 1. Abraham Lincoln has his face on the penny which is one cent. George Washington has his face on the one dollar bill. :) Or am I wrong, there is a different answer? : /
The holiday is in celebration of his birthday and achievements. Actually, Presidents' Day is the Monday between Abraham Lincoln's (February 12) and George Washington's (February 22) birthdays. It celebrates BOTH men. That's why it's Presidents' Day and not President's Day...more than one president.
No. Since Washington was the first one there were no others before him. His father was an English farmer. There was no United States for the most of Washington's life, therefore, there were no presidents. Only a king.
