IN CASE SOUTH DAKOTA NEEDS MORE MONUMENT HERITAGE
I wrote an article in 2023 called Dejavu at the Ballot Box Dejavu election that showed the number of times we had the same choice for president on the same ballot. Of course, with President Biden dropping out, that did not happen.
We did, however, for the second time, have a president elected to a non-sequential second term. Of course, we have seen many mentions of Trump doing a Grover Cleveland. Think of Grover in his grave, wondering why it took so long for him to become a verb.
By the way, Grover Cleveland was...

ANCESTOR- LINCOLN STARTED THE TREND OF BEARDED PRESIDENTS
Some noise was generated this election when a bearded V.P. candidate (J.D. Vance) was chosen by a major party. Beards were not a feature from 1789-1861 among the first 15 presidents.
After Lincoln wore his, and of the next seven presidents only Johnson and Cleveland did not have beards as Grant, Hayes, Garfield, and Harrison all sported beards. Likely just a leftover fashion trend created by Civil War Generals. Other than Lincoln all of them were Civil War Generals, who as Commander-in-Chief outranked all of them.
I even included a picture of my bearded distant...

RUTHERFORD B. HAYES PURSUED HIS ANCESTRY
Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822 – 1893) was the 19th president of the United States, serving from 1877 to 1881. An attorney in Ohio, Hayes was Cincinnati's city solicitor and a staunch abolitionist. During the Civil War, he joined the Union Army, earning a reputation for bravery and rising to brevet major general. Post-war, Hayes became a prominent Republican, serving in Congress and as governor of Ohio.
Despite losing the popular vote, Hayes won the 1876 presidential election (see the last article) against Samuel J. Tilden through the Compromise of 1877. The deal ended federal support for...

ACCORDING TO THIS GENEALOGIST THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME A MAYOR OF NEW YORK HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH A FEDERAL CRIME WHILE STILL IN OFFICE
There has been a lot of press lately about Eric Adams, the first Mayor of New York City ever to be indicted for a crime while in office. However, I doubt Adams will face execution.
My wife’s sixth-time Great-Uncle, David Mathews, was appointed Mayor of New York City in February 1776 by the British Governor of the Province of New York.
That same year, Mathews was implicated in a plan to kidnap George Washington, the Commander in...

THANKS FOR DOING MY GENEALOGY, NOW YOU MUST DIE!
In Bergen, Norway, we took a walking tour of the city, and the guide took us to the statue of Snorri Sturluson (1179 –1241). He was an Icelandic historian, poet, and politician. He was elected twice as lawspeaker of the Icelandic parliament, the Althing. He is commonly thought to have authored or compiled portions of the Prose Edda, which is a major source for what is today known about Norse mythology and alliterative verse, and Heimskringla, a history of the Norse kings that begins with legendary material in Ynglinga saga and moves...
