Extra Credit Questions

Yes, Joe. That's it. The quote I asked about comes from p. 208 of By Square and Compass: Saga of the Lincoln Home by Dr. Wayne C. Temple.

Another quote from Dr. Temple on that page regarding Oldroyd: "Oldroyd's official address may have been 430 S. 8th, but actually it might have been called Easy Street." Seven people were residing in the Lincoln Home at that time.

I highly recommend Dr. Temple's book as it contains an outstanding history of the Lincoln Home in Springfield. It also has lots of photos and diagrams.
