Florence Mabel Harding (née Kling; August 15, 1860 – November 21, 1924), wife of President Warren G. Harding, was the First Lady of the United States from 1921 to 1923. She married the somewhat-younger Harding when he was a newspaper publisher in Ohio, and she was acknowledged as the brains behind the business. Known as The Duchess, she adapted well to the White House, where she gave notably elegant parties. ==Early life== She was born Florence Kling in Marion, Ohio, the eldest of three children of Amos Kling, a prominent Marion banker of German descent, and Louisa Bouton Kling, whose French Huguenot ancestors had fled religious persecution. (Contrary to some claims, Florence was apparently never known as Flossie.) Aiming to become a concert pianist, Florence began studies at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, but at 19 she eloped with Henry Atherton ("Pete") DeWolfe, and they were married in Columbus, Ohio, on January 22, 1880.〔The Marion Star, Tuesday, January 27, 1880, page 4〕 A record of the issuance of their marriage license was printed in ''The Marion Star''.〔The Marion Star, Saturday, January 31, 1880, page 4〕 Florence gave birth to her only child, Marshall Eugene, on September 22, 1880, but the couple separated not long afterwards, and were divorced in 1886.
