George Washington's original Cabinet had four members :

  • Secretary of War Henry Knox (took office March 8, 1785)
  • Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton (took office September 11, 1789)
  • Attorney General Edmund Randolph (took office September 26, 1789)
  • Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson (took office March 1, 1790)

Randolph succeeded Jefferson as Secretary of State in 1794 and was replaced as Attorney General by William Bradford (Jr.).
