Kevin Dayhoff: In July 1845 Westminster held a funeral for President Jackson Jul 24, 2022
On July 19, 1845, Westminster paused with great fanfare to mourn the death of President Andrew Jackson, who served in office from 1829 to 1837.
For a historian, it is always fascinating to research and write about Jackson. His legacy is so complicated. Historians either love him or hate him. There seems to be no middle ground. According to my research at the State Library of North Carolina, conducted when I participated in the civil rights movement in the early 1970s, Jackson “was born … near the border between North and South Carolina on March 15, 1767. [He] was the third child and third son of Scots-Irish parents. His father, also named Andrew, died as the result of a logging accident just a few weeks before the future president was born.
