Name Change
Following her appointment as Treasurer by U.S. President Richard M. Nixon as Dorothy Andrews Elston, she married Walter L. Kabis (1914-2009), a WWII Pacific Navy veteran on the USS England (DE-635) and a school principal from Wilmington, Delaware in 1970 and changed her name to Dorothy Andrews Elston Kabis. She became the first (and so far only) treasurer to have their name changed while in office, an event significant because the signature of the Treasurer of the United States appears on U.S. paper currency.
The resulting change in Kabis' signature appeared first on the Series 1969A one-dollar bill.
