Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b c d Reflects the president's political party at the start of their presidency. Changes during their time in office are noted. Also reflects the vice president's political party unless otherwise noted beside the individual's name.
  2. ^ Stephens had been elected Provisional Vice President by the Provisional Confederate Congress on February 11, 1861, a week prior to Davis' election and appointment as Provisional President.[6]
  3. ^ a b Presidents are numbered according to periods served by person, as opposed to term. Upon the resignation of 22nd president, Spiro Agnew, Wilbur Mills became the 19th president even though he simply served out the remainder of Agnew's term and was never elected to the presidency in his own right. A vice president who temporarily becomes acting president under the Twenty-third Amendment to the Constitution is not counted, because the president remains in office during such a period.
  4. ^ a b c d e f Died in office[10]
  5. ^ John C. Breckinridge was a key member in the re-founding of the Southern branch of the Democratic Party in the 1868 Confederate States elections. [11]
  6. ^ John C. Breckinridge succeeded to the presidency upon the death of Robert E. Lee.[13]
  7. ^ Howard Sutherland succeeded to the presidency upon the death of Barnard Elliott Bee III.[25]
  8. ^ Spiro Agnew succeeded to the presidency upon the death of George Wallace.[34]
  9. ^ Resigned from office[10]
  10. ^ Wilbur Mills, as Speaker of the Confederate States House of Representatives, succeeded to the presidency upon the resignation of Spiro Agnew, as per the presidential line of succession, as defined by the Twenty-third Amendment.[36]
