Who was president when your oldest grandparent was born?

[Torie]

Grant. My father's father was born in 1874.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Grover Cleveland  (this might be the winner)

[Rookie Yinzer]

My grandfathers and paternal grandmother were born during FDR.

My maternal grandmother was born during the Truman administration.

[Blue3]

Mine were born during Harding and Coolidge.


Though I know grandparents of voting-age people who were born during LBJ.

[RINO Tom]

FDR (my dad's dad was born in 1933)

[Mr. Morden]

Grover Cleveland  (this might be the winner)

Which Cleveland term?  My paternal grandfather was also born during the Cleveland administration, albeit at the very end of his second term.  Yes, my grandfather was born over 80 years before I was.

1913 so Wilson.

Grover Cleveland  (this might be the winner)

Which Cleveland term?  My paternal grandfather was also born during the Cleveland administration, albeit at the very end of his second term.  Yes, my grandfather was born over 80 years before I was.

He was born in 1886.

[HillGoose]

1937, so FDR.

But I had a great grandmother who was like a grandmother to me, she was born during Coolidge.

Grant. My father's father was born in 1874.

I figured you'd have me by one president.

[100% pro-life no matter what]

All four during FDR (1933, 1936, 1944, 1945).  They all are/were separated a good amount by age, so it speaks to how long FDR was president for.

[Yeahsayyeah]

Paul von Hindenburg (May 1934)

[America's Sweetheart ❤/𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕭𝖔𝖔𝖙𝖞 𝖂𝖆𝖗𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖗]

John Quincy Adams.

[thumb21]

Roosevelt for all 4 of them.

[politicallefty]

All of my biological grandparents were born under FDR (1st, 2nd, and 3rd terms). My step-grandfather (who is my grandpa for all intents and purposes) was born under Truman.

I wonder if anyone can put a grandparent under each of FDR's four terms (particularly difficult on account of the brevity of the fourth term).

[vanguard96]

Maternal Grandfather was born in 1911 - Taft was president.
The other 3 grandparents were born when Woodrow Wilson was president.

That would have put them as first possibly voting in the 1932 presidential elections for 3 of 4 and 1936 for my maternal grandmother. I was not aware of their politics.

My father was born when FDR was president, and my mom when Truman was in the White House.

First presidential elections for both would have been 1964. I have not asked them who they voted for.

My wife's father and mother were born in the Showa era (Hirohito) coinciding with the same two presidents respectively.

I believe her maternal grandmother was born during the Taisho era while Coolidge was president - though I am not certain she may have been born in the early Showa era (Coolidge in office here). Definitely her other 3 grandparents were from the Taisho era from 1912 to 1925 from Taft, Wilson, Harding, and early Coolidge.

I am really close, but not quite:

December 1933
August 1936
April 1944
February 1945

Same as muon's son

[LCSPopTart]

Hoover

[FairBol]

I have no living grandparents.  As far as my parents are concerned, my father died two years ago, at the age of 80.  I'm not quite sure how old my mother is, so I'm using my father's date of birth here.  As such, the answer to your question would be FDR (1934). 

[AtorBoltox]

One during Harding, three during Coolidge
