My great great grandmother met President Lincoln..when she was a little girl.He stopped by train..she shook his hand. ❤ My grandmother told me about all this.I was really surprised 😮❤
I grew up in Washington, a suburb of Peoria, Illinois. For our 8th grade field trip, we went to Springfield and toured Lincoln’s home, law office, and tomb, as well as the nearby State House. It turned out to be a pivotal event in my life, since seeing the legislature in action and relics of Lincoln’s law practice inspired in me the determination to become a lawyer. Consequently, I later went to law school and practiced law for 30 years before retiring. All inspired by a trip to Springfield!

I am Australian and admire Abraham Lincoln as one of the truly outstanding heroes of human history. I visited Springfield several years ago and visited the home every day for a week or so. It was a privilege to visit his home. I also visited his nearby tomb and the remains of New Salem where he lived as a very young man. I was driven to New Salem in a spectacular act of kindness by an American woman. Someone looking for a business idea might consider running a van for tourists between Springfield and New Salem!
I live in a country,where the corrupted politicians have destroyed it for their benefits n wellbeing. I always admired n respected This brave n honest president Mr .Lincoln. This vedio made my dream true.Thank you somuch.
While I admire Lincoln, it must be said that, as a politician, he pulled a few fast ones. When he was in the state legislature, he joined a few colleagues who actually jumped out a window to prevent a quorum for an upcoming vote! As president, he suspended the writ of habeas corpus, a highly illegal and unconstitutional measure. He was no doubt a great leader, but not in any sense perfect!
I grew up on Lincoln Avenue in a small town in northern New Jersey right outside of New York City and I grew up loving Abraham Lincoln since I was two years old… I am so excited to see this video… I’m in my 60s and I thought I would never see Abraham Lincoln‘s home.. and now it’s come true🇺🇸❤️🤍💙😇🙏☮️✝️💜⭐️🌎
The original role of the Secret Service was to deal with counterfeit money. It was after his death that they were tasked with protecting the president.
They failed to protect him because 1) Lincoln established it literally just a few hours before he was shot, 2) when they were established it was just to fight counterfeiting. The idea of the Secret Service protecting the President didn’t happen until 1901.
At the time, the Secret Service was primarily responsible for counterfeit currency and did not protect the president. He had bodyguards for that who obviously failed miserably!
You would think the out house would be insulated. So in winter you could carry a hurricane lantern with you for light & heat. Imagine having diarrhea in winter when it's -5F
When we last visited Lincoln’s home, it was a wonderful experience. My daughter uses a wheel chair & as soon as a park guide saw her he personally lead us to the back yard. The back porch lowered to ground level & we both got on & then it raised & we basically took the tour backwards & it was wonderful. We could not go upstairs but we saw everything on the first floor & did not feel like we missed anything. It was really great.
I am so thrilled with this video. I will be 74 soon. I "met him" when I was 12, and have been awed by him ever since. In 1962 my parents and I visited the Fords Theatre, which had not been refurbished. It was a Lincoln Museum. Plain walls, wooden floors and exhibits. Thinking back, I think I felt closer to him there under those circumstances, than if I were to go back there today. My father went to purchase a small botebook so that i could take notes on the exhibits. I was 12. From that point on, he's the human being I've reverred the most in spite of the fact, I recognize his many flaws. After leaving academia i began lecturing in various aspects of Lincoln annually in my local community. But sadly, I never made it to Springfield. My son and his family are vacationong in the West this week, but took a southern route in order to visit his tomb and sent me pix. They didnt take time to tour his home. I will be sending him a link to this site. Thanks so much.
They had three different holes; that’s fancy. 😂 Idk why but this tickled me bc when I think of outhouses, I’m like, why would you need three different holes to do your business in; it’s all waste from the bodies so it shouldn’t have mattered that much, right? But I guess he was the president, so nothing but the best for him.
It's so sad the best presidents and people get assinated. Lincoln was one of the GOAT and he's even carved into a mountain. What an amazing tribute to one of the greatest Americans. Very nice video.
I just learned A.Lincolns son Roberts summer home is here in Machester, Vermont. Robert Lincoln also passed away there. I am going to go see it this summer. Robert named his home Hildene.
What a beautiful home, I love the drapes and the dark furniture. A. Lincoln is my favorite American President, a lot to see also about him at Gettysburg, PA. Thank you for sharing. 😊❤
Lincoln’s home was completely renovated several years ago, but the original structure is still intact. So, most of what you see, such as the siding, walls, doors, and woodwork is indeed original.
8:12....how cool to metal detect that yard/entire area! I can't imagine the random items that are buried...from coins, to small toys, to all kinds of other small things.
When I was a child my parents brought me to see President Lincoln's home. Also we went on a train ride that had an actor that played Lincoln. I was small & he was so tall & the top hat made him look taller. He sat down with us & would tell us tails & it was really like meeting the real person, especially when you're a little 'kid' I sat on his lap & got to hold his gold pocket watch as my parents looked on & he told such interesting stories. Our time with him was brief because there were other's on the train but I have NEVER forgotten that experience. I wish I could thank him in person as an adult. I have a large collection of books on President Lincoln & the Civil War. I'm hopeful that if the man, the actor might see this humble comment -- that it makes him smile. Thank you sir for letting 'US' go on this tour to see Mr. & Mrs. Lincoln's home , that unfortunately President & family-- never got to live there long & of the loss of their dear children. On slavery -- President Lincoln said ; " If you want slavery FIRST be a slave. " Treat ALL FOLKS the way 'YOU' want to be treated -- is my take away from that.

When I was a kid of 10 years old, 65 years ago there was a canopy bed in one of the bedrooms. I fell in love with it! 2 years ago when I visited again there was No Canopy bed! I asked the tour guide about that and I was told they switched furniture out to suite the house. A lot of the furniture DID NOT belong to the Lincolns’ !! I was so disappointed.
Abe is one of my favorite Presidents. He endured a lot growing up, and then to become one of the most prominent Presidents in American history is fascinating. He was a great President. He did this country proud.
Great to come across this video. Abraham Lincoln has been one President in the United States I so admires. Thanks for sharing his home which brings me back to history! History has always been my favorite subject!
Loved watching this. Really liked seeing the photographs of them. Thanks for sharing with us all. Stay safe in this storm, tornados heading to the midwest tonight and tomorrow.
I Love American history and as a child an adult I have been and still fascinated with A Lincoln. I got to visit his home n his law office n the Lincoln Library. I also went to Washington n visited Fords theater where he was assassinated😢
13:18 Strange feeling when you opened the door and looked at the neighborhood…like going back in time. Wow, I wish I could see that when opening my door.
It was a great tour. Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the house. One tip: Unless you love kids you might want to not visit during the end of the school year because of all the junior high trips. Well organized but a bit crowded nonetheless
I grew up in Litchfield, Illinois, which is the half way point on I55 between Springfield, IL and St. Louis, Mo. I have been there many times. I am amazed each time I'm there. The out house is interesting. I asked the guide why the seats weren't just flat as most I had seen. He said it was because women had long dresses and had hoops. That way the dresses would fit over them and not interfere with their pretty dresses. I thought that was very interesting!
I was there almost 45 years ago. It cerntainly has changed. My Mother was fascinated by the outhouse and how small the house seemed for such a big man.
I have always wanted to tour this home. Watching you walk across that parking lot, though, makes me sick for all of the history that was destroyed to make a place for cars to sit.
My parents brought me to see Lincoln's home in 1962. The area does appear to have changed. The Lincoln home was surrounded by old homes. The neighborhood was decaying due to age & lack of upkeep. I believe the backyard had a picket fence. The sidewalk in front of the house was old concrete and much narrower than the current brick paver construction. The house color remains the same as I recall seeing.

I did the same trip in 8th grade! From Gurnee, IL!
I did that same field trip in 8th grade and I still think about it today!!
I wish neighborhoods were still like that today. That would be lovely.

While I admire Lincoln, it must be said that, as a politician, he pulled a few fast ones. When he was in the state legislature, he joined a few colleagues who actually jumped out a window to prevent a quorum for an upcoming vote! As president, he suspended the writ of habeas corpus, a highly illegal and unconstitutional measure. He was no doubt a great leader, but not in any sense perfect!

I think the home was lovely! President Lincoln did quite well considering that he was born in a log cabin! 😊❤
I went to his childhood home in Indiana. Very small. All that was left at the time was the footprint.
Such a beautiful home, thakyou Lincoln a brave , kind hearted man.😊

I went to Springfield, Illinois last year in 2023 with my mom on Saturday July 8, 2023 and I visited President Abraham Lincoln’s House. 🇺🇸🏡😃
We live close by and never get tired of going there and spending the day! New Salem is really fun as well!
I tend to go every few years. Always worth the trip!
I found out my Potter relative helped found New Salem. He came from Massachusetts!
