From Slave to Dressmaker for the First Lady: Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley

Too bad that this Mary Sue did not do a little more research and find out that Mrs. Keckly's remains were found years ago by forum member Richard Smyth and that her grave is now marked by an impressive stone donated by contributions raised by the Surratt Society in 2010. Go here for a better bio and photo of marker at National Harony Memorial Park in Landover, Maryland.

P.S. I just enlightened Mary Sue. http://www.surrattmuseum.org/elizabeth-keckly-gravesite
