The Physical Lincoln: Sarah Lincoln
From Lincolnwiki
- Lincoln's sister. Often known as "Sally."
- Married Aaron Grigsby.
- Died in childbirth.
From recollection of Mrs. J.W. Lamar, in Hobson p22:
I remember old Tommy Lincoln. I sat on his lap many times. I was at Sally Lincoln's infare dinner. I remember the night she died. My mother was there at the time. She had a very strong voice, and I heard her calling father. He awoke the boys and said, 'Something is the matter.' He went after a doctor, but it was too late. They let her lay too long. My old aunt was the midwife.
