4. Wikipedia lookup on Barbara Bush

It was at a dance during Christmas vacation when she was 17 that she met George H. W. Bush, a freshman at Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts. One and a half years later, the two became married, just before George went off to war during World War II as a Navy torpedo bomber pilot.

When he returned on leave, Barbara had dropped out of Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. Two weeks later, on January 6, 1945, they married.

After the war, George graduated from Yale University, and they moved to Midland, Texas. Six children were born to them:

George Walker Bush (6 July 1946- ) 43rd President of the United States and 46th Governor of Texas
Pauline Robinson Bush "Robin" (20 December 1949 - October 11, 1953, died of leukemia);
John Ellis Bush (11 February 1953- ); 43rd Governor of Florida
Neil Mallon Bush (22 January 1955- );
Marvin Pierce Bush (22 October 1956- ) and
Dorothy Bush Koch (August 18, 1959 - ).
Meanwhile, George H. W. Bush built a business in the oil industry.

Barbara's family moved twenty-nine times during the years that she and George H. W. Bush were married. She managed her family while her husband was away, as her husband served in a variety of government jobs.
