Biographical History
Born Rachel Donelson. Some time after 1780 she married Lewis Robards and later separated from him. In 1791, believing herself divorced, she married Andrew Jackson. Later it was discovered that Robards had never completed the proceedings, and the Jacksons had to wait for a final decree and re-marry in 1794. The scandal was used by Jackson's political enemies throughout his career. Rachel died soon after his election to the presidency.
Rachel Donelson Jackson, born in Virginia in 1767, was the wife of Andrew Jackson but died prior to his inauguration as seventh President of the United States.
