Ulysses S. Grant V 9/21/1920 - 3/2/2011

Anyone who knows me knows that Ulysses S. Grant has been my hero for a very long time.  I have always been interested in any news or information about him.  It seems only fitting that the first post in my new blog should relate to Ulysses S. Grant. 

Ulysses S. Grant V was the last surviving great grandson of the former General and President of the United States.  As a boy he spent a part of his youth growing up in the home of Jesse Root Grant, the late presidents youngest son.  I was not able to locate a photo of Ulysses Grant V, but here is a photo of President Grant, his wife Julia, and their son Jesse.
