Calvin Coolidge was born on the 4th of July.

President Coolidge was a skilled and effective public speaker holding over 500 press conferences (a record at the time), yet his nickname was "Silent Cal" due to the stories of him being an extremely quiet man in private.

President Coolidge is a Mayflower descendant through Mayflower passengers John Alden, Priscilla Mullins (and her family), and Edward Doty.

Coolidge is a direct descendant of George Bunker, owner and namesake of Bunker Hill. ("Battle of Bunker Hill")

He is one of the three U.S. Presidents and one of the two U.S. Vice Presidents who is known by his middle name (his first name is John).

Of the three Massachusetts Governors who have run for President, he is the only one who won.
