Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of Ulysses Simpson Grant Hiram Ulysses Grant, the eldest of six children, was born at Point Pleasant, Clermont County, Ohio, on the 27th of April, 1822. Point Pleasant is a post village of the county, and is situated upon the Ohio River, about twenty-five miles above Cincinnati. His parents were of Scotch descent, and his great-grandfather, Noah Grant, was a captain in the early French wars. His grandfather, who bore the same name, was a lieutenant in the battle of Lexington. Before their little son was two years old, his parents changed their residence to Georgetown, in Brown County, Ohio, and it was here that young Grant spent the early part of his life. This latter village is about seven miles from the Ohio River, and in the midst of a rich farming district. Grant was by no means a brilliant lad at school.
