The History of the Lincoln family; an account of the descendants of Samuel Lincoln of Hingham, MA, 1637-1920. Through Samuel we find the English and the American ancestry of the late President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. He is of direct descent from the parent stock at Hingham, Mass. Previous to 1640, there were eight settlers bearing the surname Lincoln in the little town of Hingham, Massachusetts. This genealogy tracing the Lincoln family back ten generations, details the lineage of the immigrant Samuel Lincoln who arrived in Massachusetts in 1637.
