This is the Nancy Hanks Memorial on the Lincoln Homestead in Kentucky. This is the foundation of the home in which she lived when she moved to Kentucky. The foundation has been made into a memorial to her.
My Honey and I enjoy stopping at historical sites while we are on our road trips. It is so good that these places are preserved for everyone to be able to visit.
One of our fellow bloggers is Abraham Lincoln, cousin of our US President Abraham Lincoln. You can visit his blog here.
Enjoy,
Lois

i love that quote from Abe about his angel mother...
I love that quote too! This is a beautiful place.
It certainly was a small footprint for the cabin. I agree, the quote was really nice...Enjoyed my visit there!...debbie
I am thinking one of these days I will talk my own honey into going here...I just cannot express how much I have enjoyed your and your Honey's posts.
The memorial words by Abraham Lincoln to his mother brought tears to my eyes. These are some of the best places to visit, to actually walk where these people lived.

A lovely memorial. My husband especially loves these historical places, anything historical as a matter of fact. Thank goodness for the History Channel! But seriously, there is nothing better than visiting a historic place in person.
Another good post. Keep em coming!
It's wonderful seeing bits of history that are still around.
Great place to visit! Such a tiny little house....
