| | John Tyler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | John Tyler was born the son of John Tyler, Sr. | | | The Cabinet and U.S. Congress agreed with Tyler that he was President and not merely Acting President of the United States, and as the Constitution was not explicit on that aspect of succession (until the 1967 ratification of the 25th Amendment), both the House and Senate passed resolutions recognizing Tyler as President. | | | John Tyler (March 29, 1790 – January 18, 1862) was the tenth (1841-1845) President of the United States. |

| | Visiting President Tyler's Grave |
| | Contemporaries in government called Tyler "His Accidency" and were insistent that he was only the "Acting President" and that his powers in that role were limited and subservient to the Congress. | | | At the time of his death, Tyler had been elected to the Confederate Senate -- in effect, he was a leader of a government in rebellion to that he led as Commander in Chief, and so his Richmond burial was in land that at least he considered non-U.S. territory (the only such President). | | | A far more important piece of information about Tyler concerns his behavior when he became the first man ever to be ushered into the Presidency by the death of his predecessor. |
