Yep. William Henry Harrison was the "Tippecanoe" war hero, so you have to wonder if this living "Harrison" was named after his grandpa Tyler's Whig running-mate?

On the Presedential podcast that came out two years ago, one of Tyler's grandson's was interviewed. Thought it was an amazing fact that Tyler had living grandsons, remarkable.
