Married twice, the second to a much, much younger woman in the 1844 - with whom he had 7 kids, including a daughter the year before he died when he was 70 (the old traitorous Confederate bastard).
His 11th or so child Lyon Gardner Tyler (born 1852, died 1935) and he also married twice - a second time in 1923, and had amongst his 8 kids, a son while in his mid 60's - Harrison Ruffin Tyler, (born 1968, died 2025), the oldest grandchild of a President.
Harrison might have barely known his father, likewise his father probably barely knew the former President, but that definitely is one longest 3 generational spans out there.
