Henry Wheeler and Abigail Allen were lived their entire lives in Salisbury, a small village that was settled by their parents before it became incorporated in 1640. It was located on the North shore of Massachusetts on the border of New Hampshire. Today the Wheeler’s and the Allen’s are recorded historically, as the first settlers on a Salisbury City Memorial in that seaside community. Henry, known as the” immigrant,” was the youngest son and 12th child born to John and Agnes Ann Yeoman christened in Salisbury, Wiltshire, England 8 February 1864. He immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony with his family 24 March 1634, as a young infant. Agnes Ann was the oldest child born into the very large family of William and Ann Goodale Allen born 4 January 1639 in Salisbury, Massachusetts Bay. Her parents also immigrated to American as young adults sometime prior to their marriage in Salisbury.
In 1659, Henry and Abigail were likely married on the town square in the Salisbury Church. For the next 26 years they raised 12 children in Salisbury: the 1st child, a son Henry 1659; the 2nd child, a daughter Abigail 1660; the 3rd child, a son William 1663; the 4th child, a son Moses 1665; the 5th & 6th children were twins, a son James and a daughter Ann 1667; the 7th child, a son Josiah 1669; the 8th child, a daughter Ruth 1671; the 9th child, a son Nathaniel 1675; the 10th child, a son Jeremiah 1679; the 11th child, a son Benjamin 1682; and the 12th child, a daughter Mary 1685.
Tragically, Henry lived only to the age of 52, when he died 18 June 1686, in Salisbury. He left Abigail a widow with young children: Mary (newborn); Benjamin (4); Jeremiah (7); Nathaniel (11); Ruth (15); and Josiah (17). In one source she was known as member of the Salisbury Church in 1687. According to records, Abigail never remarried and raised her younger children in Salisbury. Only one of her children, the oldest son Henry, stayed in Salisbury. The other children scattered to surrounding villages to raise their families, such as: Gloucester, Newark, Rehoboth, Andover, Boston and Amesbury. Abigail died ten years after Henry, at the age of 57, in Salisbury 18 June 1696.
She was a member of the Salisbury church in 1687; a widow of Boston, 1696.

George Herbert Walker Bush (June 12, 1924 - November 30, 2018) was an American statesman and Republican Party politician who served as the 41st President of the United States from 1989 to 1993; he earlier served as the 43rd Vice President of the United States from 1981 to 1989. He had also been a congressman, ambassador, and Director of Central Intelligence. During his career in public service, he was known simply as George Bush, but he was referred to as "George H. W. Bush", "Bush 41", or "George Bush Sr." after his son George W. Bush became the 43rd president in 2001.

Bush postponed his university studies after the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, enlisted in the Navy on his 18th birthday, and became one of its youngest aviators. He served until September 1945, and then attended Yale University, graduating in 1948. He moved his family to West Texas where he entered the oil business and became a millionaire by the age of 40 in 1964. After founding his own oil company, Bush was defeated in his first run for the United States Senate in 1964, but won election to the House of Representatives from Texas's 7th congressional district in 1966. He was reelected in 1968 but was defeated for election to the Senate in 1970. In 1971, President Richard Nixon appointed Bush as ambassador to the United Nations, and he became Chairman of the Republican National Committee in 1973. The following year, President Gerald Ford appointed him Chief of the Liaison Office in China and later made him the director of Central Intelligence. Bush ran for president in 1980, was defeated in the Republican primary by Ronald Reagan, then as his running mate became vice-president after the ticket's election. During his eight-year tenure as vice president, Bush headed task forces on deregulation and the war on drugs.

Bush in 1988 defeated Democratic opponent Michael Dukakis, becoming the first incumbent vice president to be elected president in 152 years. Foreign policy drove the Bush presidency; military operations were conducted in Panama and the Persian Gulf, the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, and the Soviet Union dissolved two years later. Bush also signed the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which created a trade bloc consisting of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Domestically, Bush reneged on a 1988 campaign promise and signed a bill to increase taxes. He lost the 1992 presidential election to Democrat Bill Clinton following an economic recession and the decreased importance of foreign policy in a post-Cold War political climate.

After leaving office in 1993, Bush was active in humanitarian activities, often alongside Clinton, his former opponent. With George W. Bush's victory in the 2000 presidential election, Bush and his son became the second father-son pair to serve as President, following John Adams and John Quincy Adams. Bush died on November 30, 2018, aged 94 years, 171 days, making him the longest-lived president in U.S. history.

Notater:

Pauline Robinson "Robin" Bush (December 20, 1949 - October 11, 1953) was the second child and eldest daughter of President of the United States George H. W. Bush and his wife, First Lady Barbara Bush. Born in California, her family soon relocated to Texas, where Robin lived most of her life.

At the age of 3, Robin was diagnosed with advanced leukemia. As she was given very little time to live, her parents flew her to New York City for treatment, where she spent the next six months. Despite their efforts, she died two months before her fourth birthday. Her death prompted them to establish a foundation for leukemia research.

Then an oil field equipment salesman for Dresser Industries, George H. W. Bush lived in various places around the United States with his wife, Barbara (née Pierce), and their young son, George W. In 1949, they moved to Compton, California; by then, Barbara was already pregnant with the couple's second child. On September 23, 1949, Pauline Robinson Pierce, Barbara's mother, was killed in a freak car accident, which also injured her father, Marvin. Since she was very late into the pregnancy, Marvin advised Barbara not to make the journey to New York, so as not to hurt the baby.

On December 20, 1949, Barbara delivered a baby girl, whom she named Pauline Robinson Bush, after her late mother. Initially, the child's intended name was Pauline Pierce Bush, until George H. W.'s mother pointed out that her initials would be P. P. Bush, which "would never do". From birth, the little girl was referred to as Robin, so much so that, later in life, Barbara would comment that Robin's siblings probably do not even remember her real name. Barbara and Robin were brought home from the hospital on Christmas Day. On this occasion, Marvin Pierce gave the family a Hoffman television set and the family's friends came over to watch Milton Berle.

Robin was described as being calm and having a "sweet soul". She was "quiet and gentle, and she had lovely little blond curls." Her father would later say of Robin: "She'd fight and cry and play and make her way just like the rest, but there was about her a certain softness... Her peace made me feel strong, and so very important." In 1950, shortly after Robin's birth, the family relocated again, this time to Midland, Texas; the family quickly became involved in their new town. They adapted very well to life in Midland, which they found they were well suited for, and decided to make Midland their home. In February 1953, after having moved to their third house in Midland, the Bushes welcomed another son, John Ellis, affectionately called "Jeb".

Illness and death
In the spring of 1953, shortly after Jeb's birth, Robin awoke one morning, listless. She said she was unsure of what to do that particular morning, stating that she "may go out and lie on the grass and watch the cars go by", or just stay in bed. Barbara believed Robin had come down with what her mother had referred to as "spring fever", as, up until that point, she had been "as rowdy and healthy" as her brothers. The child was taken to the family's pediatrician, Dr. Dorothy Wyvell, who took a blood sample and told Barbara to return later that afternoon with George H. W.; Barbara had not yet noticed the bruises on Robin. Dr. Wyvell told George and Barbara that Robin had advanced stage leukemia. Her advice for them was to not tell anyone about the child's illness, and to take her home, "make life as easy as possible for her, and in three weeks' time, she'll be gone." Neither parent had ever heard of leukemia, and, in the 1950s, not much was known of it; consequently, it was nearly always fatal.

The Bushes went against both parts of the doctor's advice. Almost immediately, their friends from the country club were discussing Robin's diagnosis, and George called his uncle, John M. Walker, president of Memorial Hospital in New York City. Walker urged them to take Robin to the adjacent Sloan Kettering Institute. He told George and Barbara that "you could never live with yourselves unless you treat her." The very next day, leaving George W. and Jeb with different friends, they both flew to New York and had Robin admitted into Sloan Kettering. She was tested once again, and, after the diagnosis was confirmed, she was immediately put on medication. George W. was told that his sister was sick, but was never explained exactly how bad her condition was; he certainly never imagined she had anything life-threatening. For the next six months, Barbara largely remained in New York with Robin, while George traveled back and forth, due to his job. Their two sons were cared for either by family friends or by housekeepers.

Robin was, by her mother's account, "wonderful", not questioning why she was sick. She disliked bone marrow tests, which were very painful, as were many of the blood transfusions she endured. Oftentimes, the medication worked so well that Robin did not even appear to be ill. However, she never went into complete remission. According to Dr. Charlotte Tan, who treated Robin in New York, she was mature and tolerated her treatments well. Barbara and George heard about a doctor in Kansas City who maintained he had found the cure for leukemia. However, their hopes were dashed when they found out the man was merely testing a new drug, and had not claimed to have the cure. Sometimes, her parents would take Robin to the Bush house in Greenwich, Connecticut, and she was once taken to Maine for a brief period. There, she got to see her brothers, whose pictures she had taped to the headboard of her hospital bed. During this visit, George W. was not allowed to wrestle his sister like they used to; his mother focused most of her attention on Robin and would "snap" at him if he tried to "horse around" with the latter.

By fall, Robin's condition was worsening. She spent time in an oxygen tent, and her platelets were low enough that whenever she started bleeding, it was very difficult to ascertain when it would stop. Barbara allowed no crying around Robin, and made her husband leave the room if he felt like doing so. Prescott Bush, George's father, had purchased a plot for Robin to be buried in, as her situation was not improving. Eventually, due to her medication, Robin developed heavy bruising, which almost entirely covered one of her legs, and "a hundred or so" stomach ulcers. Barbara called George, and, by the time he arrived to his daughter's bedside, she had slipped into a coma. Barbara combed her hair and they both held her for the last time. Robin died peacefully, on October 11, 1953, after doctors' frantic efforts to close the ulcers in her stomach. She was two months shy of her fourth birthday. Two days later, on October 13, a memorial service was held for Robin, at the Bushes' home in Greenwich. Initially, her body was donated for research, in hopes that her death might help others survive; she was buried several days later, when the hospital released her remains, by Dorothy Walker Bush, her paternal grandmother, and Lud Ashley.

Returning to life without Robin was very hard for her parents, and Barbara cried herself to sleep many nights. Feeling Robin's absence as a huge blow to the family, she "crumbled" completely, and would later say that she "fell totally apart and [George] took care of [her]." George W. was told of his sister's death a few days after it happened, when his parents picked him up from school. He would later describe this as the only low point of his happy childhood, remembering the sadness he felt both for his parents and for the loss of his sister. He and his brother Jeb then became their mother's focal points, and she devoted her time to caring for them, as a means of overcoming her daughter's death.

After overhearing George W. tell one of his friends that he could not go out and play, as he needed to play with his mother, Barbara decided that it was time to heal, for her family. After a few months, "the grief and the awful aching hurt began to disappear", and the Bushes began to remember the good times they had with Robin; eventually, her memory brought joy and happiness. "I like... to think of Robin as though she were a part, a living part, of our vital energetic and wonderful family of men and [Barbara]," George H. W. Bush would later write. Barbara came to believe that she and her husband valued all people more because of the loss they suffered with Robin. It is also said that her daughter's sudden death was part of the reason for the future First Lady's premature graying.

Dorothy Walker Bush commissioned an oil painting of Robin, which hung in the Bushes' homes in Midland and, later, Houston. Eventually, they had three more children: Neil, in 1955, Marvin in 1956, and another daughter, Dorothy, known as "Doro" and born in 1959. Doro was once described by her father as "a wild dark version of Robin", noting that the two looked so much alike, his parents mistakenly called her Robin once. When Doro was a child, her father would tuck her in before bed and tell her stories about Robin, and they would both cry. In 2000, Robin's remains were transferred from Connecticut to the family's future burial plot at the George Bush Presidential Library in Texas. On this occasion, George H. W. stated: "It seems funny after almost 50 years since her death how dear Robin is to our hearts."

Following Robin's death, the Bush family created a charity to raise awareness and money for leukemia research called the Bright Star Foundation, through which Barbara believed Robin lived on. The impact of the Bright Star Foundation was acknowledged by the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in 2004, when it opened the Robin Bush Child and Adolescent Clinic. Barbara later became honorary chairwoman of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and honorary national chairperson of Donor Awareness Week.
