Hannah Hoes Van Buren (born Hoes; March 8, 1783 – February 5, 1819) was the wife of the eighth President of the United States, Martin Van Buren.
Hannah Hoes married her childhood friend and cousin Martin Van Buren in 1807 when she was 23 and he was 24.
[1] Hannah Hoes passed away from tuberculosis on February 5, 1819, at the age of 35.
During Van Buren's term, his daughter-in-law Angelica acted as hostess of the White House and First Lady of the United States.
When writing his autobiography, Van Buren did not mention his wife once, possibly to shield her from public references.
