The Truth about Abraham and Mary's Marriage

[RJNorton]

Laurie describes the complexities of the relationship very well. Gloria, author Catherine Clinton has a fairly lengthy article that touches on many of your questions here.

I think Catherine Clinton's first sentence is very telling: "The puzzle of Mary Lincoln's relationship with her husband continues to fascinate and indeed perplex many, if not most, Lincoln scholars."

Gloria, you have a lot of company in trying to figure things out.
