Alice wasn't Edith"s daughter. She was Alice Lee's daughter.
Ingrid Dubbel Your right! I just think they meant that she adopted her as her own.

Who hit the thumbs down? Why would anyone not like this video?
Jealous of the Roosevelt's life?
Who is jealous now...
Charles McKim wanted to remove all of the Victorian furnishings but Edith and Teddy insisted on keeping some of them including the furniture now in the Lincoln Bedroom which they used in their own bedroom (as did the Coolidges).
There are three mistakes in the video: the West Colonnade leading to the West Wing was already in place (having been built by Thomas Jefferson), it had been obscured by the greenhouses. The Oval Office built "seven years later" was at the center of the South end of the West Wing, the floor plan shows the current Oval Office which wasn't built until 1935. The East Entrance doesn't lead into the East Room, it is at the of a the reconstructed East Colonnade.
Ahh i see so the old white house is the house for the family? And the west wing is where the work happens? Cool
Well duh, how long did it take you to figure it out?
I need to buy an Indian Calendar.
