1. John Tyler (William Harrison died) 2. Millard Fillmore (Zachary Taylor died) 3. Andrew Johnson (Lincoln assasinated) 4. Chester A Arthur (Garfield assassinated) 5. Theodore Roosevelt (McKinley assassinated) 6. Calvin Coolidge (Harding died) 7. Harry Truman (Roosevelt (FDR) died) 8. Lyndon Johnson (Kennedy assassinated) 9. Gerald Ford (Nixon Resigned) Five Vice Presidents were subsequently elected president: John Adams, Thomas Jeffersoin, Martin Van Buren, George H.W. Bush and Richard Nixon. The first four of these were Vice President when elected president. Nixon was a former Vice Preident.
