John Tyler (1790-1862) was the tenth President of the United States and served from 1841 to 1845. He was also the most fecund of the Presidents, having sired fifteen legitimate children through his two wives and possibly many more babies through his slaves. Amazingly, as of the date of this post (8/17/2024), one of his grandsons, Harrison Ruffin Tyler, is still alive.
