Mr.. Tucker is so we'll known in
Virginia and even Var beyond the
borders of the Old Dominion, and held
in such high esteem, that most people
are familiar with his history. as we'll
as with his equally illustrious ances-
tors. However, these very facts make
any biographical sketch of his moro
Interesting rather than less.
Hon. Harry st. George Tucker Is
a man OF the most pleasing and at
tractive personality, and is. In fact,
perfect type Of the true Virginia
affectation, and wears his honors with
a modesty, admirable and charming.
He was member of the United States
Congress for eight consecutive years,
serving with that honor and distinc-
ton that marked similar services by
his father and grandfather and his
great grandfather, the latter being
a member of the Continental Congress
during the troublous times just prior
to the adoption OF the Constitution.
It is thus seen that Mr.. Tucker Is
n lineal descendant Of an ancestry
whose names stand out prominently
In the history of Virginia and of the
nation His great-great- grandcathe
was a descendant of the House OF
Powhatan and directly descended from
the charming Princess Pocahontas
herself.
Following in the limo of his great
great grandfather, came Henry ST.
George Tucker, who was professor of
law In the University of Virginia In
the early part OF the last century.
His son, John Randolph Tucker, after
serving twelve years In CongressIwas
