Biographical History
Andrew Jackson (1767-1845) was the seventh President of the United States (1829-1837) as well as a lawyer, general, and legislator. Born in the Carolinas, he served as a courier during the Revolutionary War. He read for the law during his teen years and became a lawyer in Tennessee by 1787. The first U. S. Representative for Tennessee (1796), Jackson was elected to the Senate in 1797, resigned in 1798, and served as a judge on the Tennessee Supreme Court, 1798-1804. He was later reelected to the Senate in 1822.
As a major general during the war of 1812, Jackson defeated the British at New Orleans in 1815. Additionally, he fought in the Creek Wars and the Seminole War and became the Military Governor of Florida in 1819 after Spain ceded the territory to the U. S.
Jackson ran for president in 1824 and won the popular and electoral votes. However, he did not win a majority and the House gave the Presidency to John Quincy Adams. He successfully ran for president in 1828, defeating Adams. During his controversial presidency Jackson dissolved the national bank, weathered the Nullification crisis, supported and implemented the removal of Indians to western territories, and instituted the modern system of patronage in politics. In 1837, Jackson retired to his plantation, the Hermitage, and died there in 1845.
