Ancestral background of presidents of the United States
text:
The ancestral background of presidents of the United States has been relatively consistent throughout American history. The most common ancestry of U.S. presidents is English, due to its origins as a group of former English colonies. With the exception of Martin Van Buren and possibly Dwight D. Eisenhower, every president has ancestors from the British Isles. Van Buren was of Dutch lineage; Polk, Buchanan, and Wilson were of Scottish and Scotch-Irish ancestry; Eisenhower was of German and Swiss
