[Verginius Rufus]

James Buchanan is the only President who never married (supposedly he was too heart-broken after his fiancee died to consider marrying anyone else) but he was suspected of being a homosexual.

Fillmore married at the age of 26 and had a son and a daughter. Pierce married when he was about 29 and had three sons, all of whom died as children. That hasn't kept The New York Times from asserting that Barbara Pierce Bush, the wife of George H. W. Bush, was a direct descendant of Franklin Pierce (she was a distant cousin).

The NY Times the paper of record!

Not quite sure what record they are talking about but that’s what they say!
