John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on July 4, 1826, exactly 50 years after the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.
James Monroe also died on July 4th, 1831, completing this unusual triad of presidential deaths on Independence Day.
This coincidence has sparked discussions about its significance, with some considering it simply an odd happenstance, while others have explored theories ranging from divine intervention to the men's desire to cling to life until the nation's anniversary.
Notably, James Madison, the 4th president, died just six days before the 60th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence on June 28, 1836, and reputedly refused efforts to prolong his life to reach July 4th
