... that Letitia Christian Tyler was the first First Lady of the United States to die while serving the position? Source: Diller, Daniel C.; Robertson, Stephen L. (2001). The Presidents, First Ladies, and Vice Presidents: White House Biographies, 1789–2001. CQ Press. p. 156. ISBN 978-1-56802-573-5.
Overall: No DYK problems, but as long as we're here:
"Tyler" is often used for her in sentences that talk about both her and her husband of the same name. For example "Tyler generally deferred to her husband, but she made one significant exception when he suggested sending their eldest daughter to a Catholic school, which Tyler adamantly refused." All three people in this sentence are named Tyler! Rephrasing seems called for in multiple sentences like this.
"she closely followed norms of the time relating to piety and chastity" which seems out of context. Maybe move it closer to John Tyler kissing her on the hand?
"Tyler appears on a 28p (£0.28) commemorative postage stamp from the Isle of Man Post Office, issued May 23, 2006, as part of a series honoring Manx-Americans." - in what way is she a Manx-American? This is the first mention of the Isle of Man in her heritage, maybe mention it earlier? GRuban (talk) 15:35, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
