Well, there's always WikiPedia. Sometimes the articles are inaccurate, but these guys' ones should be okay, since I'm pretty sure they don't relate to "current events".
Then, the White House's website has a short biography on each of them (along with every other President.)
Benjamin Harrison:
Grandson of the 9th President, William Henry Harrison.

Born in 1833 on a farm by the Ohio River below Cincinnati, Harrison attended Miami University in Ohio and read law in Cincinnati. He moved to Indianapolis, where he practiced law and campaigned for the Republican Party. He married Caroline Lavinia Scott in 1853. After the Civil War--he was Colonel of the 70th Volunteer Infantry--Harrison became a pillar of Indianapolis, enhancing his reputation as a brilliant laywer.
William McKinley
Born in Niles, Ohio, in 1843, McKinley briefly attended Allegheny College, and was teaching in a country school when the Civil War broke out. Enlisting as a private in the Union Army, he was mustered out at the end of the war as a brevet major of volunteers. He studied law, opened an office in Canton, Ohio, and married Ida Saxton, daughter of a local banker.
