Roosevelt.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.robingerber.com/books.html )〕 Her parents are Anna Roosevelt Dall and her first husband Curtis Bean Dall. She is usually known as "Sistie", "Ellie" or "Eleanor". Sistie, as she was affectionately called in the press during her grandparents' tenure in the White House, was named for her mother and grandmother, Eleanor Roosevelt. When her parents separated in 1933 (they divorced in 1934), she along with her mother and brother Curtis moved into the White House with her grandparents. Her mother would later remarry two more times and a younger half-brother, John Roosevelt Boettiger would join the family in 1939. In 1948, she married Van H. Seagraves. Together, they had three children (and six grandchildren): * Nicholas Delano Seagraves (born August 7, 1949) * David Delano Seagraves (born August 26, 1952) * Anna Fierst (née ''Anna Eleanor Seagraves'') (born August 16, 1955) ''Children of Nicholas Delano Seagraves'' * Delano Dixon Seagraves (born April 5, 1978) * Haven Seagraves (born June 23, 1981) ''Children of David Delano Seagraves'' * Lucy Seagraves (born March 3, 1983) * Dana Seagraves (born March 3, 1985) ''Children of Anna Fierst'' * Sophie Eleanor Fierst (born July 24, 1992) * Simon Charles Fierst (born April 7, 1994) Seagraves is one of the few living Roosevelt family members who witnessed events firsthand during the White House years. Seagraves also is one of the few surviving people who witnessed her grandmother's diplomacy.
