- Lived in small cabin in Kentucky
- Dad moved them to Indiana in search of new job to support family
- Mom died from cow sickness
- Dad moved them back to Kentucky
- Dad married Lincoln's step mother, Sara
For Lincoln to be one of the most important people in history to innovate America, he did not get proper education. Abraham grew up in a working poor family, therefore when he did not attend school he worked in the forest clearing out trees.
