There were two Quaker Presidents. The first was Hoover. The second was Nixon. His mother's side, the Prices, were Quaker for many many generations. Their descendants, are still Quakers. He was my fourth cousin (on the Price side) and my great, great, great grandmother was a Quaker minister. The book, and later movie, "Friendly Persuasion" by Jessamyn West is about her story. I don't know if the Quaker tradition was carried down through to his children, but he did have a private Quaker funeral for friends and family only, as well as the big media memorial televised. I do believe he had two funeral/memorial services because of this. See ink below for more info on the Quaker Presidents.
