Answer 1 :
yes probably (it's possible but actually don't know for sure). I know my great great great gran father who worked for him traveled to Cuba and France for business. Oh just to educate people on travel George Washington lived in BRIDGETOWN, Barbados. Yes George was our first President Washington slept here February 18, 2007 BRIDGETOWN, Barbados -- The newly renovated Barbados home where George Washington lived as a young man in 1751 has attracted hundreds of visitors from the United States and Britain only weeks after opening. The George Washington House and Museum, completed in mid-January after an eight-year restoration project costing nearly $3.5 million, honors the first U.S. president and documents his time in the Caribbean. The site in the Garrison Historic District, just outside Bridgetown, includes a yellow home in the Caribbean Georgian style with green shutters and louvered windows, stables, a bath house and a windmill. Washington came to Barbados -- the only foreign country he ever visited -- at age 19 with his older half-brother Lawrence, who suffered from tuberculosis. During his two-month stay, Washington rode around the island on horseback, saw his first fireworks shows and play and met the governor and generals. He also contracted smallpox, making him immune to the disease when it later claimed lives during the American Revolution

no travel abroad Lincoln, despite his total lack of travel abroad, established a competent record in foreign affairs. He generally deferred to Secretary of State Seward, but intervened at opportune times. The person above is correct, Roosevelt was the very first president to travel abroad.
Answer 5 :
No, Abe Lincoln never did travel abroad. During that time period, it was much more difficult and slow to travel long distances. Early presidents probably would've been accused of neglecting their duty as president if they travelled much outside the country.
Answer 6 :
I am afraid everyone is wrong Theodore Roosevelt was not the first President to travel outside the borders of the United States. The District of Columbia was and is kind of tricky to ciuntt impossible. He traveled through out the realms of Virginia, which is located in the CSA. God Bless You, Yours and Our Southerner People.
