This was a really hard $100,000 question. I'm not sure if any of my lifelines, not even PAF, would do any good. Is this question even Googleable?

I actually knew it. I read a book a year or so ago about the first ladies, so that might have helped. It's not really a good google question though. I think it's just one of those you know it or you don't questions.

Yes. "president remarried because she had not divorced her first husband" has the third entry pointing to Jackson.

I knew the answer before hearing the choices though.

Interesting fact: She never was the First Lady as she died before Jackson took office.

I had a feeling she was going to be one and done.

This is pretty standard presidential trivia.

I knew the Andrew Jackson question because I was huge Susan Hayward fan as a kid and The President's Lady was on Saturday Night at the Movies.

She played Rachel Jackson and Charlton Heston was Jackson.
