Comment
The Fischer quintuplets also known as the Fischer quints, were the first surviving quintuplets in the United States. They are Mary Ann (named after their mother), Mary Magdalene, Mary Catherine, James Andrew, and Mary Margaret.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer_quintuplets
The quintuplets made it into the Saterday evening post several times. Associated press ran a story on them in 2013 (their 50 th aniniversary of their birth).
