New Indiana Lincoln Shrine Aims Atop Indiana Soil
The Indiana Lincoln Union raises over a million dollars to erect a national shrine honoring Abraham Lincoln and his mother Nancy Hanks Lincoln on Indiana soil. Plans by Law Olmstead restore the Lincoln cabin site with markers, water, trees, and a memorial to commemorate Lincoln’s life and pioneer mother. Nancy Hanks Lincoln died in 1818 after milk sickness swept southern Indiana, leaving a lasting legacy in the state’s memory.
