    Off the top of my head, I know Roosevlet had Melanoma. Jackie O died of Lymphoma, although that was much later in her life. Reagan has a tumor on his colon, but i dont believe it was cancerous.

    Its very hard to track anyone before about 1940 or so, because we did not know as much about cancer, or how to treat it. Many people died of cancer, and we had no idea because they died similar to that of many other diseases.
