first president born after american revolution
The answer hinges on when the American colonies became independent from Britain. Independence was declared on July 4, 1776. Martin Van Buren, the 8th president, was born in 1782, was the first born after 1776.However, Britain did not acknowledge American independence until they lost the Revolutionary War and signed the Treaty of Paris in 1783.rticle II of the Constitution established an  exception for these men so they were legally e â¦ lected. John Tyler,  born 1790, was the first president born in the US.. Many cite  Martin Van Buren as the first, but he was born in 1782 and the  Revolution did not end until 1783.
