RE: Thomas Lincoln
In 1867, Mary wrote a letter to her mother-in-law also mentioning that Tad was named for her husband and that her son (Abraham) had wished a monument to be erected over his father's grave, which he had expressed shortly before being assassinated.

When searching for the entire letter online (as I can't get at my Turner book right now), I didn't find the letter but this statement:
"She also sent Sarah Lincoln some personal mementos of her illustrious stepson, and even a bolt of cloth for a new dress."
I wonder what mementos she sent (if this is true) and if anything is known of Sarah B. L.'s reaction (despite that she wasn't able to read the letter herself)?
