"The home Jackie and John F. Kennedy lived in before checking into the White House is on the market for $7.5 million - and the Kennedys aren't the only prominent people who have lived there. The five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bathroom home in the posh Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC, was built in 1811 by William Marbury, a financier and loyalist to President John Adams."
"That's the same Marbury of the 1803 Supreme Court case Marbury vs. Madison, which established the principle of judicial review. The residence is still referred to as the Marbury House to this day. The Kennedys bought the home in 1957 and lived in it while John F. Kennedy was campaigning to become the 35th president. He and his family moved into the White House and sold the Marbury House in 1961."
