I saw this trivia bit a couple of years ago and it still amazes me. Like you, I had to do the math...and it still didn't make sense. I was at a resturant (that has the paper "presidential" placemants) and I asked my 12 year old son to guess which president still had grandchildren alive (oldest by presidency year). When I told him (and the rest of my family) they were just as amazed...and skeptical. History lesson turned into another math lesson. Thanks for reminding me of this cool historical tidbit.
