Evangeline Lodge Land Lindbergh (May 29, 1876 – September 7, 1954) was an American teacher best known as the mother of famed aviator Charles Lindbergh. She was raised in a highly educated family; her dentist father Charles H. Land pioneered porcelain and gold tooth crowns, and her uncle John Christian Lodge (1862–1950) was the 51st, 54th, and 56th mayor of Detroit.^[1] Swamped by international news reporters after her son's success flying the first solo crossing of the Atlantic Ocean, Evangeline said; "I am grateful. There is no use attempting to find words to express my happiness."^{[citation needed]}
