My Introduction

Welcome, my name is Abraham Lincoln. I was the 16th president of the United States of America. I was born on February 12, 1809 in Hardin Larue Country Kentucky. My parents names are Thomas and Nancy (Hanks) Lincoln, and they were both born in Virgina. My mother died when I was only ten years old. I have two siblings, Sarah and Thomas, sadly Thomas never made it out of infancy.
I married my wife Mary Todd on November 4, 1842. We had four boys named Robert, Edward, William, and Thomas. Thomas was the only one of my children to live to adult hood. After all my loss of family this sent me into a deep depression. It was nice to see that my eldest son married a wonderful woman and had a successful career as an American lawyer and a Secretary of War.
One of my earlier careers was being a captian in the Black Hawk War after I had been working on farm while keeping up with my education. I was also a lawyer and in legislative for eight years. I chose my political party as a Rupublican.
