President John Tyler (c. 1845)
John Tyler (1790 – 1862) was the Vice President to William Henry Harrison and would go on to be elected as America’s tenth president when his senior suddenly passed only days into his election. Known as “His Accidency” by rivals, Tyler was the initial president to ascend due to his leader’s death. Despite his term being regarded as relatively average by historians, you will love this little factoid. Harrison Ruffin Tyler is currently the sole descendant of John Tyler.
