(1) Few families have contributed as profoundly
to the United States as the family that gave the Na-
tion its second president, John Adams; its sixth
president, John Quincy Adams; first ladies Abigail
Smith Adams and Louisa Catherine Johnson
Adams; and succeeding generations of statesmen,
diplomats, advocates, and authors.
(2) John Adams (1735–1826), a lawyer, a
statesman, and a patriot, was the author of the Con-
stitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
(the oldest written constitution still in force), the
leader of the Second Continental Congress, a driving
force for independence, a negotiator of the Treaty of
Paris (which brought the Revolutionary War to an
end), the first Vice President, the second President,
and an unwavering exponent of freedom of con-
science and the rule of law.
(3) Abigail Smith Adams (1744–1818) was one
of the most remarkable women of her time. Wife of
one president and mother of another, she was an
early advocate for the rights of women and served
the cause of liberty as a prolific writer, fierce pa-
triot, and staunch abolitionist.
(4) John Quincy Adams (1767–1848), was a
distinguished lawyer, legislator, and diplomat and a
