Don't quite know what you mean by "precede." James Monroe was a 17 year old soldier who was wounded the next day at Trenton bravely charging a Hessian cannon. Perhaps it is that future president you are referring to...

We are both right...I checked, both Madison and Monroe were there but Madison did precede both Monroe and Washington...Monroe was a 17 year old, Madison was aide de camp to Washington.
