Probably Ulysses S. Grant.  His father-in-law was a slaveowner who left his daughter four slave and him one slave when he died.

My turn.

The last former slaveholder to become President? (as opposed to the last one, who owned slaves while in office)

That would be General Grant.

Who was the last president not to exceed the average life expectancy for males at the time he was born? (This excludes the presidents that were assasinated, so it's not Kennedy.)

Maybe, but do we have the data from then? Also I think it would have to be earlier, as the mean was around 40, and Coolidge died at 60
