This is one of the more random Presidential history facts I've come across in a long time, but Juliana Canfield -- the awesome actress who played Kendall Roy's long-suffering and loyal (but principled in the end!) assistant Jess in Succession -- is the great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Lewis Cass, who was Secretary of War under President Andrew Jackson, Secretary of State under President James Buchanan, and was the Democratic Presidential nominee defeated by Zachary Taylor in the 1848 Presidential election.
