The
Political Graveyard is a web site about U.S. political
history and cemeteries. It is the Internet's most comprehensive
source for American political biography, listing 192,291 politicians,
living and dead.
- The coverage of the site includes certain federal officials,
state officeholders and candidates in all 50 states, state and
national political party officials, federal and state judges, and
mayors (including candidates at election for mayor) of qualifying
cities.
- The listings are incomplete; development of the database
is a continually ongoing project.
- Information on this page — and on all other pages of this
site — is believed to be accurate, but is not
guaranteed. Users are advised to check with other sources before
relying on any information here.
- The official URL for this page is: http://politicalgraveyard.com/parties/R/1868/index.html
- Links to this or any other Political Graveyard page are welcome,
but specific page addresses may sometimes change as the site
develops.
- If you are searching for a specific individual, try the alphabetical index
of politicians.
