John Quincy Adams met everyone from Washington to Andrew Johnson, except for Zachary Taylor. He may or may not have met Abraham Lincoln (both served in the House at the same time, but no record exists of them meeting.

Only two presidents married women who were older than them: Millard Fillmore and Warren Harding.

The biggest age difference between a president and his wife was John Tyler and his second wife Julia, at 30 years. Grover and Francis Cleveland are in second, and Benjamin and second wife Mary Harrison are in third.

Tyler, Cleveland, and Harrison, along with Trump, are the only presidents to marry a woman more than 20 years younger than they were. What makes Cleveland stand out is that it was his first (and only) marriage, while it was the second for Tyler and Harrison and third for Trump.

Isn't Biden Irish? You don't become a slaveowner by moving into a former slave state.
