Built in 1839 and expanded and renovated in the Italianate style in 1856, this house was the home of Abraham Lincoln, and his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, along with their family, starting in 1844. The house was donated by the Lincoln family in 1887 to the State of Illinois to serve as a museum. The house was originally one-and-a-half-stories tall, and remained in its original configuration for most of the time Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln lived in the house during the 1840s and 1850s. The five-bay-wide house features a brick base, a side-gable wooden shingle roof with bracketed eaves, six-over-six double-hung windows with shutters and decorative trim surrounds, a broad hipped rear ell, large corner trim, a rear porch with rectilinear columns and a cast iron railing wrapping around the roof, a wooden and brick fence surrounding the yard, and a large bay in the center of the front facade of the first floor, containing the front entrance door, which is flanked by sidelights. The house is part of the Lincoln Home National Historic Site, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and today is the centerpiece of the Lincoln Home National Historic Site, serving as a museum that interprets the circa 1860 appearance of the house, the year Abraham Lincoln was elected president.

Springfield Plantation-Gaines' Mill Battlefield unit of the Richmond National Battlefield Park-- In 1862 this farmhouse was home to the widow Sarah Watt, her granddaughter, Mary Jane Haw, and a maid. It was a typical Hanover County plantation of several hundred acres with some 28 slaves who produced a modest income from grains, potatoes, and livestock. Around the house stood a kitchen, slave quarters, and other outbuildings. A series of roads, now abandoned, connected the Watt family to their neighbors and Richmond.
Their lives drastically changed on the morning of June 27, 1862. The Union commander selected the house for his temporary headquarters, forcing the family to leave. When Mary Jane returned after the battle, she found “the walls and roof were torn by shot and shell, the weatherboarding honeycombed by minie balls, and every pane of glass shattered.” Inside, evidence of a field hospital was everywhere. “Now, from garret to cellar,” she wrote, “there was scarcely a space of flooring as large as a man’s hand that did not bear the dark purple stain of blood.”
