16th United States President. As newly elected Abraham Lincoln made his way by train to Washington to assume the Presidency, the Union was fast disintegrating with secession by South Carolina followed by seven other Southern States. A Confederate government was already operating in the South. After taking the oath of office with outgoing President Buchanan beside him, he assumed the responsibility for preserving the Union by reversing secession. The South demanded the Union withdraw from the forts in the South. Lincoln was firm, he denied the right of states to secede and declared that the Federal Government would hold, occupy and possess its forts and properties. Fort Sumter was attacked, the five year Civil war had begun. During the first year and a half of conflict, neither the North nor the South had the advantage. The third year of war was the turning point as the North scored a victory at Gettysburg while conquering Vicksburg. The South became weaker and weaker. When President Lincoln took the oath of office for his second term, the end of the war was in sight and within a month the surrender of the South took place at Appomattox. Abraham Lincoln was born to American pioneers: his father Thomas Lincoln had come from Virginia to live in Kentucky where he met a girl named Nancy Hanks. After their marriage, the young couple set up house keeping in a log cabin at Nolin Creek, in Hardin County where the future President was born. At the age of nine his mother died. His father quickly brought home a new wife, Sara, who was instrumental in her stepson's learning to read and continued pursuit of self education. He developed a great and lasting affection for his step mother. The Lincoln family would move four times before settling in another log cabin in Coles County, Illinois. Abe always in conflict with his father over his passion for learning and with the many Lincoln children crowded in the family cabin, moved to nearby New Salem taking a job in a frontier dry goods store. The village schoolmaster tutored him in mathematics and grammar. His political career began with election to the state Legislature which met in nearby Springfield twice a year. John Stuart, a lawyer impressed by Lincoln, invited him to read law in his Springfield office, eventually the two became partners. The opening of the Legislature was marked by a Grand Ball resulting in his meeting Mary Todd, Stuart's cousin which culminated in marriage some three years later. Abe was able to purchase a house in Springfield which remained the Lincoln's family home until the death of Mary. He was active in politics and received a nomination for Congress and was elected. After one term, he returned to Springfield and resumed his law practice. He became a member of the new Republican party and was nominated for Senator from Illinois running against a Democratic opponent Stephen A. Douglas which set up the famous Lincoln-Douglas debates. Lincoln was not elected but became well known and above all the undisputed leader of the Republican party in Illinois. A few years later, he would again face the victorious Douglas for the Presidency and emerge victorious. Lincoln was instrumental in many achievements besides preserving the Union by a bloody war during his tenure in office. He was instrumental in building the transcontinental telegraph system and authorized the construction of the transcontinental railroad to be built by private persons while giving them huge parcels of land along the right of way. He promoted a bill in Congress which set aside areas in new states where free colleges could be built (Land Grant Colleges). He pushed a bill through Congress called the Homestead Act. Any family that settled on a farm could own the land after five years of improvement. He issued the Emancipation Proclamation declaring wherever Union troops moved into the seceding states, the slaves would automatically become free forever. Then came the tragedy - While sitting in his box at Ford's theater, he was shot by a an actor resulting in death the next day. His demise triggered a funeral extravaganza, one the country had never seen before. After a service and procession down Pennsylvania Avenue, Lincoln's embalmed body, along with that of his son Willie (disinterred from a Washington Cemetery) was placed aboard a Funeral Train for the trip home to Springfield which reversed Lincoln's original inaugural train route taken when he assumed the Presidency. Sixteen days later with arrival in Springfield, the odyssey had come to a merciful end. At Oakridge Cemetery, the remains of Willie and the President were placed in a temporary vault. Son Eddie was disinterred later from a nearby grave and also placed in the temporary chamber. Epilogue: Tragedy befell the Lincoln family at every turn: Eddie died at four-1850; Willie at eleven-1862 and Thomas at eighteen-1871 and Mary, insane, followed in 1882. But Robert lived until 1926 and was alive and present in 1922 to witness the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial. The things that remain of President Lincoln, are countless memorials, namesake places, photos on money and artifacts. However the family tree is dead, killed by tragedies, untimely deaths, insanity, lawsuits, fake heirs and even a genetic disease. The last heir, his great-grandson, Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith, died on Christmas Eve in 1985. Any direct descendant could have inherited Beckwith's fortune, it's worth estimated at $3 million. It has since gone to charity.

Biography
A son of Abraham and Bathsheba Lincoln, Thomas very probably did NOT have Herring as middle name. In 1998, Paul H. Verduin - then General Secretary of the Abraham Lincoln Institute of the Mid-Atlantic and a noted authority on President Lincoln's antecedents - pointed out two crucial items concerning Bathsheba Lincoln's maiden name. In a letter dated 13 October 1998, Verduin noted that : (1) the name Herring has not been found on any document relating to Bathsheba; and (2) the "tale was invented in 1908, some 140 years after her marriage to President Lincoln's grandfather, by the daughter of one of the co-authors of the highly flawed study of the Lincoln genealogy which appeared at that time". Verduin wrote further that the daughter "visited Rockingham County that summer and enticed a story from a couple of individuals named Chrisman. The tale had never been heard before [1908], and there's absolutely no evidence for it. I've searched high and low, but haven't found the answer - and it may well be that none is available from any extant records."[1]
On 12 June 1806, Thomas Lincoln married Nancy Hanks in Washington County, Kentucky.[2], She was born on 5 February 1784 and died on 5 October 1818. On 2 December 1819, Thomas married Sarah Bush, widow of Daniel Johnson. She was born on 13 December 1788 and died on 12 April 1869. Thomas predeceased Sarah on 17 January 1851 in Cole County, Illinois, where he had lived for twenty years.
Issue: Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, an only son, who in 1854 was of Springfield, aged 45, and had three children, the eldest of whom was 11 years of age. His wife was born and raised in Kentucky. He was born 12 February 1809.
The ancestry of Abraham Lincoln's mother Nancy Hanks has always been somewhat of a mystery. For over a century, historians and genealogists have repeatedly made claims that they have finally solved the mystery of Lincoln's mother, and that everyone before them was wrong. They claim to be able to "prove the truth!" All of these theories regarding Nancy’s ancestry have been “documented” mainly through circumstantial evidence and oral traditions. There are very few primary documents remaining. The one thing that can be proven about Nancy’s origins is that no one can prove the truth, at least not yet.

Nancy Hanks Lincoln heritage
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main article: Nancy Lincoln

Depiction of Nancy Hanks Lincoln, courtesy of Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial
There is long standinghttps://www.familysearch.org/search/linker?pal=/ark:/61903/1:1:N7KZ-176&id=KCJX-VFJ&hinting=%2Ftree%2Fperson%2Fdetails%2FKCJX-VFJ&icid=ft-hinting controversy regarding Nancy Hanks Lincoln's heritage. Nancy was the wife of Thomas Lincoln and mother of the 16th president Abraham Lincoln. Her familial background according to historian Albert J. Beveridge is as "Dim as the dream of a shifting mirage... her face and figure waver through the mists of time and rumor."[1]

There are two dominant theories about Nancy's maternal heritage:

Historians generally believe that Nancy Hanks was the illegitimate daughter of Lucy Hanks, born into the Joseph Hanks family and married into the Sparrow family.[2][3] There is no generally accepted theory about who Nancy's father may have been.
Information from the Shipley and Berry families, as well as some historical sites, claim that Nancy's mother was Lucy or Lucey Shipley, sister to Rachel Shipley Berry. Nancy's father may have been James Hanks.
A recent mitochondrial DNA test of descendants of daughters of Joseph Hanks, daughters of Lucy Hanks Sparrow, and two Shipley sisters show a match between Hanks and Sparrow and no match to the Shipleys, making it certain Nancy Hanks is the illegitimate daughter of Lucy Hanks, and that Lucy is the daughter of Ann "Nanny" Lee Hanks.

Abraham was shot and killed by Indians. John Harrison, in his 1935 book titled "Settlers by the Long Grey Trail: Some Pioneers to Old Augusta County" states on page 285 that early biographers who said that Abraham first married a Mary Shipley were wrong. He states that later investigators are agreed that there was only the one wife, Bathsheba Herring.

The following from, Find A Grave.

Abraham's father's family settled in Pennsylvania and Abraham was born in Berks County, the first of 9 children. Abraham became a tanner, perhaps because of a family relationship with James Boone, a well-regarded tanner who lived nearby. James was an uncle of Daniel Boone and his daughter was married to Abraham's father's half-brother.

Much of the Lincoln clan moved to the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia when Abraham's father purchased a large tract of land there in 1768. Abraham received a portion of the land, married and began having children. When the American Revolution broke out, Abraham became involved with the local militia. He served as a captain of the Augusta County militia first and later with the Rockingham County militia when that county was established in 1778. Lincoln's unit was called into service under the Western Department of the Continental Army when Brigadier General Lachlan McIntosh of Georgia was in command there.

McIntosh had recently been involved in the killing of Button Gwinnett, a signer of the Declaration of Independence from Georgia and a political rival of McIntosh, when the two fought a duel over various accusations. George Washington valued McIntosh's contributions to the war and feared that McIntosh might be killed or imprisoned by Gwinnett's supporters, so he had him transferred to the northwest.

The Western Department was headquartered at Fort Pitt (now Pittsburgh) and was responsible for guarding the backcountry from British invasion from Fort Detroit. McIntosh devised a plan to attack Detroit that involved the building of two new forts to aid in the attack, Fort Laurens on the Tuscarawas River in Ohio and Fort McIntosh at the convergence of the Ohio and Beaver Rivers in Pennsylvania. Abraham Lincoln's Rockingham militia unit was called into service to help build the two forts during the latter part of 1778.

In 1780, Abraham Lincoln moved his family to Jefferson County, Kentucky (then part of Virginia), and settled near Hughes' Station east of Louisville (a station was like a small fort near which settlers would live for protection). Lincoln began purchasing land and eventually owned 2,000 acres. Unfortunately, the area was still contested by Indians and Lincoln had numerous "visits" from local Indians who wanted him off their hunting grounds.

In 1786, Lincoln was working on the farm with his three sons when he was shot from the forest and killed. The oldest son, Mordecai, who was 15 or 16, quickly ran to the cabin to get a gun, while the next son, Josiah, 13, ran off to Hughes' Station for help. The youngest son, Thomas, who was only 8 years old, stood by and watched in fear as an Indian came out of the woods. When the Indian reached for Thomas, either to kill or kidnap him, Mordecai took aim and shot the Indian dead. The boys then ran into the house where the rest of the family stayed until the arrival of help from Hughes' Station which drove the Indians off.

After his death, Abraham's wife Bathsheba was left with five children on the harsh frontier. Abraham's land was divided by law between Bathsheba and the oldest son, Mordecai, leaving Thomas to earn his own way in life. He would eventually become a wealthy landowner himself and his second child, also named Abraham, would one day become the 16th President of the United States.

CAUTION: MEGA MIX UP OF PEOPLE AGAIN! HE HAD 7 CHILDREN, NOT 12! See "Settlers by the Long Grey Trail" in MEMORIES so different generations and unrelated people do not get added again! Alexander Herron or Herring was the only son of Alexander Herring who died at Delaware in 1735. The mother was Margaret. Where this surname for her came from is a question mark.
Children as listed in J. Houston Harrison, "Settlers by the Long Grey Trail," page 286 were:
LEONARD, b. 1731, d. after 1805 and married Abigail Harrison, daughter of Thomas Harrison, founder of Harrisonburg. So Leonard had a mother whose maiden name was Abigail Harrison and a wife whose maiden name was Abigail Harrison, but they were 2 DIFFERENT persons.
JOHN, b. before 1741 and d. before 1778.
ALEXANDER, b. about 1739 and d. April-l-May, 1779; m. ____?
BATHSHEBA, b. about 1742 d. 1836; md. Abraham Lincoln, b. 13 May 1744, and d. May 1786. He was the grandfather of the president and son of "Virginia" John Lincoln.
WILLIAM, b. about 1744; d. July 1806; m. Elizabeth Stephenson. She died 1821 and was a sister to Major David Stephenson.
JESSE, b. ____; s. March 1781; d. March 1781, unmarried.
BETHUEL, b. 1751; d. ___; m. 2nd, in October `800, Margaret Erwin, daughter of John.
In the will of Alexander Sr., this man's father, will dated September 19, 1735 it stated: "To my loving son Alexander Herring, house and 189 acres."
Where did this person get the name John added. No reference in land or court records or in J. Houston Harrison's "Settlers by the Long Grey Trai"l when referring to Alexander Herring or Herron called him John. Find a grave calls him Alexander. There was a later John A., but not this one.

Alexander blev gift med Abigail Harrison i 1735 i Sussex, Delaware, USA. Abigail blev født i 1710 i Smithtown, Suffolk, New York, USA; døde i 1780 i Rockingham, Virginia, USA; blev begravet i 1780 i McGaheysville, Rockingham, Virginia, United States. [Gruppeskema] [Familietavle]
