Have you ever heard of the famous president Abraham Lincoln? Have you ever heard of the famous song, My Old Kentucky Home? You can find all of this information on this website.
Abraham Lincoln was our 16th president and was born in Kentucky. He was our president from 1861-1865. Wow! That was a long time ago! Here is the birthplace location: in 1811 his family moved to Knob Creek: on a 230 acre farm. The picture on the right is a memorial that contains the cabin. If you want to visit this attraction, here is some advice: Summers here are usually hot and humid. Winters here are rainy and cool. Comfortable walking shoes are very handy when it comes to this attraction. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, it is open from 8:00 a.m. to 6:45 p.m. The rest of the year it is open 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. As you know My Old Kentucky Home was an idea from Stephen Foster's famous song. The house was his cousin's plantation. It's location is: Bardstown on US 150. As you tour this attraction you'll be very interested. So if you ever hear My Old Kentucky Home or see anything about Abraham Lincoln please remember this page.
