Nathaniel Potter Tallmadge, born in New York in 1795, studied law at Williams
College before beginning his political career. He served in the New York State
Senate and was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1833, where he became known for his
strong opposition to slavery and his frequent clashes with John C. Calhoun. A
vocal critic of President Van Buren, he played a key role in turning public
sentiment against Van Buren’s re-election. In 1844, President Tyler appointed
him Governor of the Wisconsin Territory.
