William Howard Taft
William Howard Taft (September 15, 1857 – March 8, 1930) was the 27th president of the United States (1909–1913) and the tenth chief justice of the United States (1921–1930), the only person to have held both offices.
Taft was elected president in 1908, the chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for re-election by Woodrow Wilson in 1912 after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate.
In 1921, President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft to be chief justice, a position in which he served until a month before his death.
Taft was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1857.
His father, Alphonso Taft, was a U.S. Attorney General and Secretary of War.
Taft attended Yale and, like his father, was a member of Skull and Bones.
After becoming a lawyer, Taft was appointed a judge while still in his twenties.
He continued a rapid rise, being named Solicitor General and as a judge of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.
In 1901, President William McKinley appointed Taft civilian governor of the Philippines.
In 1904, Roosevelt made him Secretary of War, and he became Roosevelt's hand-picked successor.
Despite his personal ambition to become chief justice, Taft declined repeated offers of appointment to the Supreme Court of the United States, believing his political work to be more important.
With Roosevelt's help, Taft had little opposition for the Republican nomination for president in 1908 and easily defeated William Jennings Bryan for the presidency that November.
In the White House, he focused on East Asia more than European affairs and repeatedly intervened to prop up or remove Latin American governments.
Taft sought reductions to trade tariffs, then a major source of governmental income, but the resulting bill was heavily influenced by special interests.
His administration was filled with conflict between the conservative wing of the Republican Party, with which Taft often sympathized, and the progressive wing, toward which Roosevelt moved more and more.
Controversies over conservation and antitrust cases filed by the Taft administration served to further separate the two men.
Roosevelt challenged Taft for renomination in 1912.
Taft used his control of the party machinery to gain a bare majority of delegates and Roosevelt bolted the party.
The split left Taft with little chance of re-election and he took only Utah and Vermont in Wilson's victory.
After leaving office, Taft returned to Yale as a professor, continuing his political activity and working against war through the League to Enforce Peace.
In 1921, President Harding appointed Taft as chief justice, an office he had long sought.
Chief Justice Taft was a conservative on business issues and under him there were advances in individual rights.
In poor health, he resigned in February 1930, and died the following month.
He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery, the first president and first Supreme Court justice to be interred there.
Taft is generally listed near the middle in historians' rankings of U.S. presidents.
Robert A. Taft
Robert Alphonso Taft Sr.
(September 8, 1889 – July 31, 1953) was an American conservative politician, lawyer, and scion of the Republican Party's Taft family.
Taft represented Ohio in the United States Senate, briefly served as Senate Majority Leader, and was a leader of the conservative coalition of Republicans and conservative Democrats who prevented expansion of the New Deal.
Often referred to as "Mr. Republican", he cosponsored the Taft–Hartley Act of 1947, which banned closed shops and other labor practices.
The elder son of William Howard Taft, the 27th President of the United States, Robert Taft was born in Cincinnati, Ohio.
He pursued a legal career in Cincinnati after graduating from Harvard Law School in 1913.
Along with his brother Charles Phelps Taft II, he co-founded the law partnership of Taft Stettinius & Hollister.
Taft served in the Ohio House of Representatives from 1921 to 1931 and in the Ohio Senate from 1931 to 1933.
Though he lost re-election in 1932, he remained a powerful force in state and local politics.
After winning election to the Senate in 1938 over incumbent Democrat Robert J. Bulkley, Taft repeatedly sought the Republican presidential nomination, often battling for control of the party with the moderate faction of Republicans led by Thomas E. Dewey.
He also emerged as a prominent non-interventionist and opposed U.S. involvement into World War II prior to the 1941 Japanese Attack on Pearl Harbor.
Taft's non-interventionist stances damaged his 1940 candidacy, and the 1940 Republican National Convention nominated Wendell Willkie.
Taft sought the presidency again in 1948, but he lost to Dewey at the 1948 Republican National Convention.
He opposed the creation of NATO and criticized President Harry Truman's handling of the Korean War.
Taft again sought the presidential nomination a third time in 1952, and was widely viewed as the front-runner.
However, Dewey and other moderates convinced General Dwight D. Eisenhower to enter the race, and Eisenhower narrowly prevailed at the 1952 Republican National Convention and went on to win the 1952 presidential election.
Taft was elected Senate Majority Leader in 1953 but died of pancreatic cancer later that year.
A 1957 Senate committee named Taft as one of America's five greatest senators, along with Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, John C. Calhoun, and Robert M. La Follette, Sr.

Sennedjem had the title" Servant in the Place of Truth".
He was buried along with his wife, Iyneferti, and family in a tomb in the village necropolis.
His tomb was discovered January 31, 1886.
When Sennedjem's tomb was found, in it there was regular furniture from his home, including a stool and a bed, which he actually used when he was alive.
His titles included Servant in the Place of Truth, meaning that he worked on the excavation and decoration of the nearby royal tombs.
