RE: Nancy Hanks - a wrestler?
As far as I know, Bill, no one has ever been able to conclusively prove that she was illegitimate. Lincoln, if Herndon is to be believed, thought she was, but that's one of the dozens of questions that, short of any new evidence, will never be settled. Tarbell didn't believe that she was.
Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
