 | | In 1816, when Lincoln was seven years old, he and his parents moved to Spencer County, Indiana, he would state "partly on account of slavery" and partly because of economic difficulties in Kentucky (mostly derived from losing two homes and financing years of litigation). |
 | | McLean County argued that the state had no authority to grant such an exemption, and it sought to impose taxes on the railroad notwithstanding. |
 | | Counties in 17 U.S. states (Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, West Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming) are named after Lincoln. |
