Can anyone give me an example of any individual successfully winning a seat in Congress yet not living within that district?  In the alternative, does anyone have examples of individuals running for Congress while living outside of it borders?

To the best of my knowledge I cannot find an example dating all the way back to 1842 when Congress mandated single-member districts for Congress.

Thank you.
