I assume the question is: Which U.S. Presidents have died while in office. The answer is: Abraham Lincoln (assassinated), Franklin Delano Roosevelt (natural causes, and John Kennedy (assassinated) are the most famous ones, but James Garfield, William Harrison, William McKinley, Zachary Taylor, and Warren G. Harding did so as well.
Eight US Presidents have died in office: four by assassination and four from other causes.
9th President, William Henry Harrison (April 4, 1841 Natural Causes )
12th President, Zachary Taylor, (July 9, 1850 Natural Causes)
16th President, Abraham Lincoln (April 15, 1865 - assassinated)
20th President, James Garfield (September 19, 1881 - assassinated)
25th President William McKinley (September 14,1901 - assassinated)
29th President, Warren G. Harding (August 2, 1923 natural causes)
32nd President, Franklin D. Roosevelt (April 12, 1945 ) natural causes
35th President, John F. Kennedy (1963- assassinated)
No US president actually died in the Oval Office. Harrison and Taylor died in bed in the White House.
A total of eight US presidents died in office: William H. Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, Warren Harding, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and John F. Kennedy.
All the Presidents from George Washington down to Ronald Reagan have died at some point AFTER swearing in as President. Several died while serving as President:

Of these, William Henry Harrison died rather soon after being sworn in. He got sick shortly after his swearing in (ostensibly from exposure to the bad weather that day).
There were eight US Presidents that died while in office of which four were assassinated. President William Henry Harrison was the first to die in office in 1841 only 32 days into his term. President Zachary Taylor died in 1850 of gastroenteritis. President Abraham Lincoln was assassinate in 1865. President James Garfield was assassinated 1881. President William McKinley was assassinated 1901. President Warren G. Harding died of a heart attack in 1923. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt died in 1945, of a Cerebral hemorrhage, and President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963.

There are 4 US Presidential Assassinations 1. Abraham Lincoln (by John Wilkes Booth) 2. James A. Garfield (by Charles Guiteau) 3. William McKinley (by Leon Czolgosz) 4. John F. Kennedy (by Lee Harvey Oswald)
Because some presidents have died while they were in office and didn't complete their term.
Of the 8 US Presidents who died while in office, 4 were assasssinated:Abraham Lincoln (16th President) died April 15, 1865, one month into his 2nd termJames Garfield (20th President) died September 19, 1881, six months into his 1st termWilliam Mckinley (25th President) died September 14,1901, six months into his 2nd termJohn F. Kennedy (35th President), on November 22, 1963, 34 months into his 1st term(*Lincoln was shot April 14, 1865. Garfield was shot July 2, 1881. McKinley was shot on September 6, 1901.)
-shortest president at 5 ft 4 in -had two separate vice presidents for his two terms, both died in office.
all of them except the ones who died in office and the ones who completed their terms without winning a term of their own.
The term of office for US presidents is 4 years. I hope that is what you want to know.
William Henry Harrison (died April 4, 1841) and Zachary Taylor(died July 9, 1850) are the only two president who died in the White House. Six other presidents died in office, but they died in places other than Washington.
Both Adams and Jefferson died on July 4, 1826.
4 years
4
8 Presidents died while in office. 4 were assassinated (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and Kennedy); given medical advances, it's almost certain Garfield and McKinley would have survived had their shootings happened more recently. The other 4 died of illness. The most definite case of disability is Woodrow Wilson, who had a serious stroke in his second term. Other cases of Presidents having serious surgery or surviving assassination attempts involve less hindrance in carrying out the duties of the office. FDR was paralyzed from the waist down, because of polio.
There have been 44 presidents, and 3 died on July 4. Adams and Jefferson both in 1826, and Monroe in 1831.
