What was the Eraly Life of Benjamin Harrison?

Answer 1

Benjamin Harrison was the grandson of William Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United States; the great-grandson and namesake of Benjamin Harrison, who signed the Declaration of Independence; and the son of U.S. Congressman John Scott Harrison and his second wife, Elizabeth Ramsey Irwin Harrison. It was this distinguished parentage that would ultimately draw him into politics. He was the fifth of his father's children; second of 10 children of his father's second marriage. Born and raised on his grandfather's farm in North Bend, Ohio, he spent his youth in a rustic setting, attended a log cabin school, and was tutored at home with some of his brothers and sisters.
