Happy B Day, Zachary Taylor

Posted on November 24, 2017November 18, 2017Author Chris Farmer

President Zachary Taylor was born today in Barboursville, Virginia. He didn’t last in office long, but he’s still a Virginia president. Zachary Taylor Highway is Route 522 and it ain’t much, but the scenery is nice.

Happy B Day, Zach.
