Virginia wins this contest with 8; Ohio is a close second with 7. However, William Henry Harrison, Taylor and Wilson left Virginia when they were children, so you might say only 5 presidents were really Virginians. As for Ohio, Grant did not live in Ohio after he left for college and Benjamin Harrison left Ohio when was 21 . However, the other five born in Ohio lived their lives in Ohio and held public office there.
