*The name of the park changed several times. From 1925 until 1930, it was called the Nancy Hanks Lincoln Burial Ground. In 1931, the park, including the gravesite and formal areas as well as the recreational park, became known as Lincoln State Park. The Nancy Hanks Lincoln Memorial name was applied to the commemorative subunit of Lincoln State Park from 1937 until 1962, when it became a unit of the National Park System known as Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial.

**When more than one manager served during the course of a given year, the manager named is the one who served the majority of that year.
