^ Tyler's name does not appear in the Senate voting records until late January of the following year, likely due to illness.

^ Tyler had vetoed a total of ten Congressional bills, six regular and two pocket vetos. By comparison, Andrew Jackson, whom the Whigs detested, vetoed a total of twelve Congressional bills, five regular and seven pocket vetos. Martin Van Buren only had one Congressional pocket veto of a bill.[106]

^ Frémont, in uniform, with his wife Jessie, had met Tyler at the New Year's Day 1842 White House reception.[125]

^ Frémont's two expeditions (1842 and 1843-1844), including a geographic map of the West, were first published in 1845 for use by the 28th Congress. Unofficial copies of the report (some abridged), were soon printed in American and German editions.[129]

^ McCaleb was assigned as the judge for both the Eastern and Western Districts of Louisiana, a common practice at the time.

^ On February 13, 1845, the two districts of Louisiana were combined into one; McCaleb was a judge of that court by operation of law; on March 3, 1849, the district was again split, and McCaleb was assigned to the Eastern District only.
