Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln National Historical Park, Kentucky Thomas Lincoln presumably lived with his mother in Washington County until about 1798, when it is thought he made a trip to Tennessee and lived with an uncle for about 1 year, returning to Kentucky about 1800 and taking up residence in Elizabethtown, the county seat of the then Hardin County. There is every reason to believe that Thomas Lincoln was an industrious and reasonably hard-working man during the next few years. He had established accounts in at least one of the stores, and he performed various duties in connection with the local government which placed his name in the county records. He acquired a certain reputation as a carpenter and engaged in the construction of various buildings. On June 10, 1806, Thomas Lincoln filed declara tion of intention to marry Nancy Hanks, and 2 days later, on June 12, 1806, they were married by the Rev. Jesse Head in the cabin of Richard Berry, Jr., situated on the banks of Beech Fork, about 8 miles north of Springfield. The newly married couple settled down in Elizabethtown. Here their first child, Sarah, was born in 1807. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Out of the Heart of Kentucky: A Rhymed Story of the Life of Abraham Lincoln The Great Ruler of the Universe places greatness at times in strange surroundings, but no one would ever have thought to look for it in the wilderness of the Heart of Kentucky nearly six score and eight years ago. If the sun broke through the clouds on the twelfth day of February 1809 it lighted and brightened a little log cabin on a meandering creek in Hardin County (now Larue), Kentucky in which Abraham Lincoln was ushered into this world. I doubt if the birth of anyone now living and born in the United States was attended with tragedy and sorrow greater than his. Poverty and obscurity were his companions in the long struggle upward to fame. Out of the valley of oblivion he rose, however, like a great majestic mountain, tipped with white, to the achievement of human success and service to his fellow men. Only once in five hundred years does his kind pass along the highroad of history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
