I was reading a list of odd facts about each president, and this one stuck out:
Former President John Tyler (born 1790) still has two living grandsons, both born in the 1920's. Apparently both Tyler and one of his sons fathered children much later in life.
bonus factoid: According to wikipedia, Tyler fathered more children than any other US president, with a whopping (15) by two wives. He had 8 w/his first wife, who later died when both Tyler and her were 52... then he had 7 kids with his second wife, his last when he was 70. solid performance, for an otherwise lackluster president.
