Which US Presidents were born or died on July 4th?

Monday Q of the Wk. Here’s how it works:

Each Monday I ask a thought provoking question about life.  Pose the same question to your blog readers on your own blog along with your answer to the question.  Then come back here and post a comment with a link to your blog post so we can all read everyone’s answers!  It’s been a lot of fun getting to know my readers and their readers and so on and so on…

This week’s question:

Which 3 US Presidents died on July 4th and which one was born on the 4th of July?

JoJo’s Answer:

With Independence Day just this past Friday, I thought I’d ask a bit of trivia to see how many of you out there know these little tidbits of history.  I must admit, having studied history with my son this past year (I created a  program for him I called: History of the US through the Presidents) that I did know the first two but couldn’t for the life of me remember the third.

I also thought I’d ask if anyone knew which US President was born on the 4th of July.

I’ll give you all a chance to answer before I post a reply here, but until then I thought I’d post some other famous people who were born on July 4th:

* 1804 Nathaniel Hawthorne, author

* 1884 Louis B. Mayer, co founder of MGM

* 1918 Abagail Van Buren and Anne Landers, twins and advice columnists
