The Lincolns weren't the only ones who lived in this 4-block area. Neighbors, friends, and rivals of Abraham Lincoln and his family lived here too. These individuals came from different parts of the country, sometimes even different parts of the world, and formed relationships with the Lincoln family. Learn about some of these neighborhood individuals from distant and faraway places who touched the Lincolns' lives on this wayside, located on the north side of 8th street.
