Abraham Lincoln Abraham Lincoln Lincoln warned the South in his Inaugural Address: "In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you.... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it." Lincoln thought secession illegal, and was willing to use force to defend Federal law and the Union. When Confederate batteries fired on Fort Sumter and forced its surrender, he called on the states for 75,000 volunteers. Four more slave states joined the Confederacy but four remained within the Union. The Civil War had begun. The son of a Kentucky frontiersman, Lincoln had to struggle for a living and for learning. Five months before receiving his party's nomination for President, he sketched his life:

"The patent system added the fuel of interest to the fire of genius." Back to Transportation Museum Lobby About Contact the Museum ... What's New Abraham Lincoln Links Smithsonian Institution Search Abraham Lincoln is widely regarded as one of the greatest presidents in history. Not only did he guide the US through the bloodshed and heartache of the Civil War, but he found time to try his hand at invention. Though the invention was never used, it shows the genius and varied interests of President Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln is the only U.S. President to invent and patent something. As a teenager, Lincoln took a boatload of merchandise down the Mississippi River from New Salem to New Orleans. At one point the boat got stuck and was set free only after a great deal of effort. In later years, while traveling on the Great Lakes, Lincoln's ship ran into a sandbar. These two experiences inspired Lincoln to invent. Lincoln received a patent (#6,469) for "A Device for Buoying Vessels Over Shoals" on May 22, 1849. The invention consists of a set of bellows attached to the hull of a ship just below the water line. On reaching a shallow place, the bellows are filled with air and the vessel, thus buoyed, is expected to float clear.

He served as President from March 4, 1861, until April 15, 1865 (he was re-elected in 1864). Lincoln's Vice-President was Andrew Johnson (1808-1875). Abraham Lincoln was born in a log cabin near Hodgenville, Kentucky . He had very little formal schooling and was mostly self-educated. He eventually became a lawyer and a Republican politician; he earned the nickname "Honest Abe." Lincoln married Mary Todd in 1842. During Lincoln's presidency, the Southern states seceded from (left) the Union because Lincoln and the Northern states were against slavery. Six weeks after becoming President, the Civil War began.

On Jan. 1, 1863, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which eventually led to the freeing of all slaves in the USA.

17. A Tale Of Weatherford, Texas ( TX ) Local legend about the us president, abraham lincoln, faking his death in 1865 in order to live a simple life away from politics and his wife. http://www.geocities.com/waylon_halen/

President Lincoln's Adventures in Weatherford, TX Weatherford, Texas is a small community located a few miles west of Fort Worth.  It's a place known for its long history of rich folklore and mythology.  Among the stranger tales to come out of this area is a legend about the United States President Abraham Lincoln. The local belief is that President Lincoln faked his death in 1865 in order to start a simple life away from politics and his wife. At once this sounds outrageously stupid, but before passing judgment let's review the whole story. What most of us have been taught is that President Lincoln was assassinated by an actor named John Wilkes Booth shortly after the Civil War had ended. For the official story of what happended next just click here However some classrooms in Weatherford, TX have a twistedly different version of this event.  Many local historians claim that the body examined by these men could not have been that of President Abraham Lincoln. Their problem with the official record of the Lincoln autopsy comes in the form of a man named Alexander ( Billy Bob ) Hamilton who lived in Weatherford from 1865 to 1881.   Only known photo of Alexander ( Billy Bob ) Hamilton taken in the Spring of 1869 in Weatherford, TX
