The news recently covered the unusual occurrence of the death of John Tyler's last remaining grandson. John Tyler was the 10th President, being the first Vice President to become President after the death of his predecessor. The predecessor in this instance was William Henry Harrison who was only in office barely over a month. Tyler was President prior to the Civil War and from what we know a sympathizer with the South since he was a Virginian. His grandson lived a long life and odd to have him pass in the 21st century when his grandfather was President in the first half of the 19th century in the United States.
