Abraham Lincoln was one of our nation’s greatest presidents. He was the 16th US president. Even though his family was poor, he worked himself to the highest office in the US. As president of the US, he led our country through one of our most difficult times, the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln was born in Kentucky. The Lincoln Family then moved to Konob Creek, Kentucky. The farm work was really hard. They moved to Indiana to have more land. There, Abraham’s mom died of poison in the milk. Then they moved back to Kentucky, where Abraham’s dad married Sarah Bush Johnston. Abraham called his stepmother, “My angel mom.”
