John Tyler {wiki} was the tenth president of the United States, serving in office from 1841 to 1845. In 1853, at age 63, he fathered a son named Lyon Tyler. At age 75, Lyon Tyler fathered Harrison Tyler {wiki}, who was born in 1928. Therefore, the grandson of a US president born in 1790 is still alive today. Bob Peck contributed this fact to a presidential trivia contest at mental_floss and won a book about US presidents. See, sometimes it pays to know trivia! Link
