In today’s episode we learn the tragic story of Willie Lincoln’s death & visit his temporary burial site in DC’s Oak Hill Cemetery. The untimely expiration of Abraham Lincoln’s best loved son makes for a compelling story indeed! We are also excited to welcome Jake Wynn of the National Museum of Civil War Medicine aboard for some Lincoln storytelling.

I'm a little stunned that Mr. Lincoln had the casket opened at times. Such deep grief you can feel it.

Odd fact. Jefferson Davis and Wm Sherman also had sons named Willie who died early 1860s

Another great loss to the Lincoln family was Robert's only son Jack, Abraham Lincoln II. A book I highly recommend is The Last Lincolns: The Rise and Fall of a Great American Family by Charles Lachman.

Had Willie Lincoln lived to be an adult, I can see him following in his father’s footsteps to become president. Sounded like he was wise beyond his years.

I can PROVE Willie didn't die at 11 years old..he and Tad too was sold to Libyan Royalty. It's said Willie lived to be 81 years old and was hung on September 16,1931. And since you weren't specific about the Davenport Brothers performing a seance to try and reach Willie in his grave, I will. That is the wikipedia story. People should read about them, how at the time Willie died, they were barely adults. There's an 1864 biography about them saying their parents had supernatural occurrences before the boys were born. One morning the family sat down to breakfast and the dishes and silverware began dancing on the table....this whole subject is only in my interest because some invisible source has been sending me all kinds of messages. I'm not fooling around...just wanting people to know there's more reality somewhere we don't know of. Also that I guess it's me because I'm a Davenport.

I actually think Abraham Lincoln was very handsome. He had wonderful eyes. He always looked like something was going on behind them. I think interesting = handsome.

I would have enjoyed this video if, when there were parts to be read, there was not video jumping around in the background. I’m a fast reader, but it made the scene so jittery, I couldn’t complete reading the information. I look forward to trying again, however.

It's sad to see William and Edward Lincoln dead. President Abraham Lincoln was my favorite president ... Because he got shot back his head, by John booth . He also headed the Civil rights war.
