United States Whig Party was a party of the United States.


United States President, dates in office

  1. William Henry Harrison (1841)
  1. John Tyler (see note) (1841-1845)
  1. Zachary Taylor (1849-1850)
  1. Millard Fillmore (1850-1853)


(Note: Tyler is often listed as a Whig president. In fact he was a member of the Democratic Party, elected with Harrison on the Whig ticket. When he succeeded to the presidency, as a result, he was in accord neither with the Whigs who controlled Congress nor with the Democrats who considered him a turncoat.)
