There has only been one president of the United States from Pennsylvania (maybe you will be the 2nd!). Go to http://www.lancasterhistory.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1257&itemid=
and read about PA's one and only president. Then write the answers to these questions in your copybook:
1. Who was the only president from PA?
2. Where was he born and where is he buried?
3. When did he become president?
4. What other jobs did he have in government?
5. What was his nickname?

President James Buchanan was the only president from PA. He was born in Cove Gap, PA. He became president in 1856. He was in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and the US House of Representatives. His nickname was Ten-Cent Jimmy.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that James Buchanan is buried in Lancaster, PA.
