We remember President Grover Cleveland, who was born in New Jersey on this day in 1837.   He died in 1908.

He was the only president to serve 2 non-consecutive terms in the office.   He won in 1884, lost in 1888 and came back to win 1892.

We may have a repeat of that if President Trump comes back in 2024 and everyone is talking about Cleveland again.

Here is a great trivia question:  What First Family had a baby in the White House?  The answer is Grover Cleveland who married Frances Folsom during his first term.  The couple had a daughter Esther or the first child born in the White House.  Frances lived until 1947.    Esther lived until 1980.
