The White House was built between 1792 and 1800. The first occupants were John Adams (the 2nd President of the USA) and his wife Abigail. The original White House was largely burned by the British in 1814 (during the war of 1812). The occupants of the rebuilt White House were James Monroe (the 5th President of the USA) and his wife Elizabeth. Of course many modifications and additions have been made since that time but Adams is considered the first occupant unless you only want to count from the time the White House was rebuilt - in which case it would be Monroe. Nearly everyone counts Adams as the first resident.
