Tyler, John (1790–1862)10th president of the United States (1841–1845). Born in Greenway, Virginia, in 1790, Tyler practiced law before entering politics. He served in the U.S. House of Representatives (1817–1821), as governor of Virginia (1825–1827), and in the U.S. Senate (1827–1836). In 1840, Tyler was elected Vice President on the Whig ticket. When President
William Henry Harrison died in office on April 4, 1841, Tyler became President. He clashed with Senator
Henry Clay, oversaw settlement of the boundary disputes with Great Britain, and ended the Second
Seminole War in 1842. In December 1845, shortly before leaving office, Tyler engineered a joint resolution of Congress annexing Texas. He subsequently presided over the 1861 Virginia Peace Convention but eventually went with the secessionists. He was elected to the Confederate House of Representatives but died in 1862 before taking his seat.
