There was no president when Betsy Ross was born, because she was born prior to the existence of the United States when the colonies were still ruled by Great Britain. George II was king at the time.
Her husband died. She joined the Fighting Quakers who supported the war effort. Their meeting house was a few blocks from Betsy Ross's house. She re-married in 1777 and had two daughters. After the death of her second husband she married a third time. She gave birth to 5 more daughters. Betsy Ross died in 1836 at the age of 84.
We don't have the information like that from her biography. Most women in her time period wore black, brown, beige, white, and blue colors. The colors we have today they didn't have the dyes to make.
