Abe Lincoln Abe Lincoln Born: 1809 Died: 1893 Years in Office: 1861-1865 Elected From: Illinois Party: Republican Vice President: 1) Hammibal Hamlin 2) Andrew Johnson The future president was born in the most modest of circumstances in a log cabin near Hodgenville, Kentucky., on Feb. 12, 1809. His entire childhood and young manhood were spent on the brink of poverty as his pioneering family made repeated fresh starts in the West. Opportunities for education, cultural activities, and even socializing were meager. When his father could spare him from chores, Lincoln attended an ABC school. Such schools were held in log cabins, and often the teachers were barely more educated than their pupils. According to Lincoln, “no qualification was ever required of a teacher beyond readin', writin', and cipherin', to the Rule of Three.” Including a few weeks at a similar school in Kentucky, Lincoln had less than one full year of formal education in his entire life. 5 important facts during term: 1.
