His first wife had died due to lack of strength after giving birth, and it was his first wife's father that had wed the two. I guess you could say a mistake he made was asking his father-in-law to wed him to another woman, with ironically the same first name.

Did William Samuel Johnson sign the Constitution?
No he didn't. He was an anti-federalist, he was against the constitution convention, but he was still a founding father. Monroe's opposition to the U. S. Constitution centered around three major issues. He felt the lack of a Bill of Right was a major omission, the Senate was too powerful and that the document should allow for the direct election of the President (no electoral college). Monroe voted against ratification, but that didn't stop him from running for the body on three different occasions (2 wins, 1 loss). He was closely aligned with Thomas Jefferson and James Madison against the Federalist faction led by John Adams and Alexander Hamilton.
