Andrew Jackson was born on March 15, 1767, in the Waxhaws region on the North Carolina-South Carolina border. He was the third son of Irish immigrants Andrew and Elizabeth Jackson. His early life had no shortage of hardship. His father died before he was born, and he lost his mother and brothers during the Revolutionary War, orphaning him at 14. Jackson’s upbringing in a turbulent frontier forged his resilience and fierce temper, shaping his future political and military career.
