Daguerreotype portrait photo circa 1840s of John Tyler. Tyler (1790 - 1862) was the tenth US President and held office from 1841 to 1845. He was the first Vice President to take office as a result of the death of a sitting President (William Henry Harrison) and at the time, aged 51, he was also the youngest President. Tyler's succession set a precedent that governed future successions and was eventually codified in the 25th Amendment to the constitution. His most notable achievement while in office was arguably the annexation of the Republic of Texas in 1845. Photo by Mathew B Brady.
