Two Presidents have been born in NC - James K Polk and Andrew Johnson. Andrew Jackson is also sometimes claimed as an NC native, but is generally thought to have been born on the SC side of the state line.

Two for sure- Polk and Andrew Johnson and maybe Jackson whose exact place of birth has proved impossible to determine, but who was born near the NC - SC border and may well have been born in NC.

There have, in fact, been just two Presidents of the United States born in North Carolina - eleventh President of the United States James K. Polk was born on November 2, 1795 in Pineville, while seventeenth President Andrew Johnson was born on December 29, 1808 in Raleigh.

Coincidentally, their political bases were both in Tennessee - neither primarily resided in North Carolina.
