Name A President From Each State

Given the state, name a president who was elected or ascended to the presidency as a resident of that state.
Not necessarily their birth state!
Some presidents are valid answers for more than one state due to changing their residency while in office.
There have been 45 presidents, who have been residents of just 18 of the 50 states when taking office.

Nice quiz! And I'm so proud of my state of Pennsylvania for being home to one of the worst Presidents in history!
