I find this very interesting...Do You? Shock Over 10th U.S. President’s Grandsons Still Living.

This story sounds too impossible to be true, but it is. John Tyler
was born in 1790, and he was the 10th president of the United States in
1841. Believe it or not, he has two living grandchildren. For
perspective consider this: When Tyler was born, George Washington was
giving his State of the Union address. When Tyler became president, the
civil war was still 20 years away! But how is this possible? Here's some
math for you: Tyler had 15 children, and in 1853 he was 63 when his son
Lyon Gardiner Tyler was born. Lyon had six children, with two of them,
Harrison Ruffin Tyler and Lyon Gardiner Tyler Jr., born when he was in
his 70s in 1924 and 1928 respectively. Both men, now in their 80s, still
live in Virginia. If you think this is unlikely, you are not alone. On
Twitter, people are calling this unbelievable and saying it boggles the mind.
