The Eisenhower family lived in this house from 1898 until Ida Eisenhower, Ike's Mother, died in 1946. The home is located on its original site & contains furniture and items used by the family.
This is the final resting place of Dwight D. Eisenhower, Mamie Eisenhower, and their first-born son, Doud.
Born in Texas and raised in Kansas, Dwight D. Eisenhower was one of America's greatest military commanders and the thirty-fourth President of the United States. Inspired by the example of a friend who was going to the U.S. Naval Academy, Eisenhower won an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Although his mother had religious convictions that made her a pacifist, she did not try to stop Eisenhower from becoming a military officer.
Ted likes the idea that Ike got to golf with some of his times "all time greats".
