Bad Luck Lincolns
Manage episode 291837722 series 2848600
Abraham Lincoln's family tree reveals a sad story of lives being cut way too short. The Lincoln family certainly was not very lucky. The man who had it the worst? Robert Lincoln, Abe's first born son... who was the only one out of four kids to make it into adulthood.
Hear Robert's tale of losing a father to an assassination, three brothers to disease and locking his mother up in a mental institution, all while feeling semi-responsible for three presidents being murdered.
Thanks to the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan for providing this episode's inspiration.
