Who is the person?
Mrs. Bixby ?
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 07-29-2017
Wonderful, Gene. That's the correct person. Yes, Mrs. Bixby seemed to move around a lot. I found all these streets on pp. 44-45 of F. Lauriston Bullard's book on the Bixby letter.
I thought Eva's prize for Steve, a historic steamboat trip on the Ocklawaha River, was really cool. You win this trip also if you are ever in Florida.

RE: Who is this person? - Gene C - 07-29-2017
With all those address changes it's a wonder she ever got the letter.
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 09-01-2017
Who is this person?

RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 09-01-2017
Hint #1: This man knew Abraham Lincoln.
RE: Who is this person? - Eva Elisabeth - 09-01-2017
If there weren't the lacking hairdo the gentleman would remind me of Stephen T. Logan.
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 09-01-2017
Good guess, Eva, but it's not Logan.
Hint #2: Lincoln knew the man from his New Salem days.
RE: Who is this person? - Eva Elisabeth - 09-01-2017
I had supposed that - looked like someone to find in Lorant's "Lincoln" but nope. Yet - although no resemblance I try Mentor Graham?
RE: Who is this person? - L Verge - 09-01-2017
Looks like a frightened politician to me....lol
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 09-01-2017
Laurie, as far as I know, this man never entered politics. Eva, that is another good guess, but it's not Mentor Graham.

Mentor Graham
RE: Who is this person? - Eva Elisabeth - 09-02-2017
I guess Joe Di Cola knows...
Did the gentleman have a connection to the Rutledges?

Yes, he knew the Rutledge family.
RE: Who is this person? - Eva Elisabeth - 09-02-2017
Well, most likely all in New Salem did...
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 09-02-2017
Yes, he knew them from the New Salem days. He also met Abraham Lincoln at New Salem.
