Which US presidents were born in a log cabin?

Andrew Jackson would be a good guess and is right if Jackson was indeed born in a log cabin. Details about Jackson's birth are not known but his family was poor enough that a log cabin is surely possible. If Jackson was not born in a log cabin, then Zachary Taylor is the next possibility. However Taylor's birthplace is also uncertain and although some think he was born in a log cabin, he may have well been born in a frame house. Millard Fillmore was certainly born in a log cabin and is first if Jackson and Taylor do not qualify. Thanks for the feedback


Who was the second president born in a log cabin?

Millard Fillmore would be a good guess. He was born in a log cabin, but the guess concerns how many before him. were born in a log cabin. It is rather likely but not certain. that Andrew Jackson was born in a log cabin. Zachary Taylor may also have been born in a log cabin, so he may be second. If neither Jackson not Taylor was in fact born in a log cabin, then Fillmore would be first and James Buchanan would be second.
