Answer

Which president broke the ground for the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal?

ANSWER:

B: John Quincy Adams

In 1828, just above Little Falls on the Potomac River, near the Montgomery County line, President Adams ceremoniously turned the first shovelful of dirt to the cheers of a crowd. The canal would not be completed until 1852. In 1939, the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal became a national park.
