List of Presidents of the United States who owned slaves : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of Presidents of the United States who owned slaves
This is a list of Presidents of the United States who owned slaves. Slavery in the United States was legal from its beginning as a nation, having been practiced in British North America from early colonial days. The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution formally abolished slavery, though the practice effectively ended with the American Civil War. In total, twelve presidents owned slaves at some point in their lives, eight of whom owned slaves while serving as president. George Washington was the first president to own slaves, including while he was president. Zachary Taylor was the last president to own slaves during his presidency, and Ulysses S. Grant was the last president to have owned a slave at some point in his life. Slave owning was common among early presidents; of the first twelve, only John Adams (2) and John Quincy Adams (6) never owned slaves, although two of the others (Martin Van Buren and William Henry Harrison) did not own slaves while serving as president. James Buchanan is said to have purchased two slaves but immediately made them into servants. ==Presidents who owned slaves==
