BEAUTY PARLORS - THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE GRANDMOTHER | I$ IDENTIFIED | Rev. Barton Believes That He! Has Established Hi torical Data, Chicago, Feb. 8—In delving after | knowledge felative to the maternal | grandmother of Abraham Lincoln, | Rev. William FE. Barton, Pastor of! the First Congregational church of} Oak Park, Chicago. suburb, and au-/ thor of numerous books, one of} which was on Lincoln, states that! he has found data which definitely identifies Lincoln's Paternal grand- mother, known among historians as “Lincoln's Lost Grandmother.” Rev. Barton states that in a | paper, which was read to an invited, audience of scholars, historians, | judges and theologians’ here today, | that he realizes that he is disputing eminent authorities and declari distinguished writers on the subject to be in error. The meeting was’ not open to the public not vall t members even of the Chicago Hi torical Society, under whose aus- pices the paper was given, being in- vited. In producing the two grandmoth- ers Rev. Barton states that “all the biographies of Abraham Lincoln are incorrect as to his Paternal grand-| mother.” Dr. Barton said in part: | “[.have promised to bring to this meeting the lost grandmother of Abraham Lincoln. I am prepared to. produce not one but two. All the! biographies of Abraham Lincoln ang) incorrect as to his paternal grand- mother. She was not Mary Shipley as Nicolay and Hay, on the auth- ority of J. R. Hall have told us; nor was she of the Boone family, as Gidgon Welles, Lincoln's secretary | of ‘war maintained, Nor was -the| pioneer Abraham Lincoln twice mi ried, once to Mary Shipley, mother, of his two eldest sons, and later to Bathsheba_ Harring,” mother of | Thomas. The marriage licenses of Virginia sometimes gave the name of the groom and omitted that of| the bride. So was it with the record! of Abarham Lincoln, the president's grandfather. His license ta marry was issued in Rockingham county,| Virginia, June 9, 1770, and the bride! js not named. When Abraham Lin- coln was selling his farm in Vir- ginia, Feb. 18, 1780, preparatory to removal to Kentucky, his wife Bath- sheba signed the deed, and on Sept. , 1781, relinquished her dower rights. She was not well at thetime and could not ride twelve miles to the court house, so a commission was sent to acknowledge her ,telin- quishment. It has been. supposed that ‘Bathsheba’ was a second wife. Mary Shipléy being the first. Then, when it was found that this could not be, it was supposed that Bath- sheba died in 1781 and Abrahayt Lincoln married Mary Shipley as his second wife. Last summer, in a pile of old tax lists in the baser ment of the old capitol at Frank- fort, the secretary of the Kentucky Historical Society discovered a list of Washington County for 1795, which shows that Bathsheba Lin- coln survived her husband, Abri- ~° LINCOLN'S LOST ONT PLUCK EYEBROWS, ~ | - !

We are ajter the mother of Nancy Hanks. Here we confront a historical problem of the Very greatest difficulty, and «one which many books hive carkened by words without knowledge. “The Hanks tradition, as given by Lemon, Herndon, and accepted by Nicolay and i=", is thus siven: “Mrs. Lincoln mother was named Lucy }.uns; hes s.svers were Betty, Polly and Nancy, who mar- ried Thomas Sparrow, Jesse Friend and Levi Hall. ‘The childhood of Naney was pa od with the Spar- rows, and she was oftencr called by their name than her own, The whole family connection was com- posed of people so little given to - Health Pilots! .

Lincoln, A History. by Ni- ecley and Hay, Vol. 1, page 24. This statement was, undisputed until 1909, when Lea and Hutchin- son published their “Ancestry of Lincoln” and Mrs. Caroline Hanks Hitchcock published her “Nancy Hanks.” These producqd the will of Joseph Hanks, presumed to be the father of these daughters, and there was no Lucy mentioned in it..A very elaborate family tree was published changing all the sisters excepting Polly; she still was/left as the wife of Jesse Friend. Elizabeth was de- clared to be the wife of Levi Hall. Thcmas Sparrow was married to Eti- | zabeth Shipley and these were .de- | clared to have been tho parents of Nancy Sparrow; who married Charles Friend, brother of James, and these are alleged to have been the par- ents of Dennis Friend, “whose sub- sequent adoption of the name af Hanks” was responsible for no end of confusion, Miss Tarbell accept- ed this theory, and proclaimed it widely. As for Lucy there was no such sister; and Nancy was declar- ed to have been the mother of Abra ham Lincoln. The motives of those who attempt- Ted to substitute this theory for the Hanks tradition were wholly ood, though some one who furnished some part of the information can- not be held guiltless of something worse than carelessness.” Dr. Barton then proceeded to an intricate and detailed analysis of the evidence as preserved in the Hanks family, and declared that there must have been a fourth and older daughter, married and away from home, at the time of the mak- ing of the will of Joseph Hanks, and for some reason omitted from it Joseph Hanks was an illiterate and a dying man, and the will was made by a lawyer, who, either by mistake or for some reason not stated gave the names of only three daughters, and devised a heifer to each of them. He continued: “Im an obscure corner of Kentuc- ky, far back from railroads, is @ sec- tion known as “the cut-off” which a legislature separated from one county and added to another, with the benevolent purpose of making two Democratic counties where @or- merly there was one. There reside literally hundreds of descendents of the President's grandmother, in- cluding some first cousins of Abra- \ham Lincoln.
