2. Like Father Like… Grandson

Ever heard of John Scott Harrison? Many Americans probably don’t know the name. However, he was a pretty important figure in American history even though we didn’t learn about him in history class. John Scott Harrison is the only person who was both a father and son to two U.S. presidents!

Before we get up in arms about this fun fact: no, this doesn’t involve inbreeding. John Scott Harrison was the son of President William Henry Harrison and the father of President Benjamin Harrison. Although he never became president himself, he was involved in politics. He served as a congressman for Ohio’s 2nd district in the 1850s.
