Kieran, thanks to you and your wife Lynn for this wonderful resource.
I'm a fan of maps and what could be better than a Lincoln map! Love the way the facts and visuals come together...1+1=3.

Roger, I found a lot of info on Mrs. Sprigg including where she and her family are buried. Here's a good site.

She was well known in Washington for her Congressional boarders and her abolitionist support. BUT no photo! It must be out there somewhere.
