Which Presidents lived at the White House?
All of them since Adams. He was the first and when he moved in it wasn't finished. They hung their laundry in the east room. In 1812 the British burned the President's House, this is what it was called, and to cover the burn marks it was painted white. Since that time it has been called the White house. Houses weren't painted in the 1800's because paint was expensive and since it was white it stood out in the unfinished Washington DC.
Which president and his wife were the first occupy the White House?
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.
