Best Answer

She was an interesting woman. A feminist and the wife of John Adams she would often write him telling him he needed to consider rights for women when there were none. She was the mother of 6 and had two children die at young ages and when John was not there she ran the family farm outside of Boston. John Adams was often gone and many of their letters still exists and in one she asked him what she should do if the British came to their farm. He told her to take the children and hide in the woods. Her letters talk about shortages of common items and how she could watch the siege of Boston by the British. As First Lady she had various duties and was required to hold a weekly tea for ladies of husbands in congress. Martha Washington started this tradition and depending on status the tea was held on certain days. The First Lady always had a tea on Monday. It was also expected to have large state dinners. Abigail Adams was a remarkable woman who faced many things and lived through a time of uncertainty and revolution.
