Was Thomas Lincoln actually poor?

Craig: it was a big problem, you're correct. Boone lost most of his land claims. He was frequently in court regarding land issues. When he finally left the "dark and bloody ground," he moved on further West looking for new land opportunities. He also basically complained that Kentucky was becoming overcrowded-as his nearest neighbor was only twenty miles away! Thomas Lincoln probably had the same kind of land claim problems.
