Extra Credit Questions

[RJNorton]

Gene, I believe it still stands, but I think the question I asked is in error. I have a book that says Thomas Lincoln, father of Abraham Lincoln, was born in this house.

But, upon further investigation, it looks like this is the Jacob Lincoln House. Jacob was a brother to the Abraham Lincoln who was the President's grandfather. The home is on Linville Creek, Virginia, in Rockingham County. I believe Jacob Lincoln built this home less than 1/2 mile from the home where Thomas Lincoln was born. That home (where Thomas was born) no longer stands. So I am sorry, but my question was not correct. Thomas Lincoln was born very near the house pictured but not in it.
