Whose Claim to Lincoln's Legacy is Best http://wfpl.org/post/kentucky-or-illinois-whose-claim-lincolns-legacy-best <p>The opening today of the film "Lincoln" is expected to renew interest in the United States' 16th&nbsp;president -- and to send those people to the sites dedicated to memorializing&nbsp;him.&nbsp;</p><p>Lincoln led a nomadic life, especially when he was young -- he was born in Kentucky but spent much of his youth in Indiana, before he settled in Illinois. And, of course, he ended his life in Washington, D.C., the first American president to be assassinated.</p> Sun, 18 Nov 2012 12:00:00 +0000 Joseph Lord 2527 at http://wfpl.org Kentucky or Illinois?
