He was born in South Carolina, but after the War of 1812, he was orphaned. He did some stuff, moved to Tennessee, did some more stuff, and became Senator for Tennessee.
Jackson first went to the Senate in 1797. He found it boring and resigned after 5 months. Later, starting in 1823, he spent two years there and then resigned to concentrate on running for President in 1828.
Andrew Johnson served as a senator and representative from the state of Tennessee. He was later elected as the 17th President of the United States after the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
He was shot in the chest in 1806 in a duel and in 1813, he received a serious wound in his arm in what was essentially a street fight with Jesse Benton and his brother Thomas, who later became an influential US senator from MO and supporter of Jackson.
