Notes for James Madison, Jr.
He was the President of the United States. The John Taylor bible abstract notes indicate that he was born at exactly midnight between March 5 and March 6, 1751. He was born at the house of his maternal grandmother while his mother was on a trip there.
James was a small, shy, soft spoken man. He stood 5'4" and weighed 100 lbs. James was the first president to regularly wear trousers; he preferred them to be black.
James Madison drafted much of the Constitution, and is largely responsible for the Bill of Rights. For these reasons Madison is known as the 'Father of the Constitution'.
He married his wife Dolly at the age of 43.
