Was the 17th US president born in a log cabin?

Not exactly Andrew Johnson was the 17th president and he was born in a cabin in Raleigh, NC, that was part of an inn. It was not a typical log cabin. It may have been built of logs, but siding was added to the outside, so it did not look like a log cabin. See the related link for a replica that has been built on the site of his birthplace.

Which US presidents were born in a log cabin?

Andrew Jackson would be a good guess and is right if Jackson was indeed born in a log cabin. Details about Jackson's birth are not known but his family was poor enough that a log cabin is surely possible. If Jackson was not born in a log cabin, then Zachary Taylor is the next possibility. However Taylor's birthplace is also uncertain and although some think he was born in a log cabin, he may have well been born in a frame house. Millard Fillmore was certainly born in a log cabin and is first if Jackson and Taylor do not qualify. Thanks for the feedback
