Journey to America.
Having grown up in meager circumstances due to a family squabble in which his wealthy grandfather disinherited his earlier children, Samuel Lincoln became an apprentice weaver under Francis Lawes of Norwich, England. Samuel Lincoln's father Edward had abandoned his home at Swanton Morley near Hingham after he was cut out of his father Richard's will, and relocated to some small acreage at Hingham. In 1637, Lincoln left England for the New World with Lawes' family,
He married again in 1857 to Martha K. "Mattie" Hayes (b. about 1840). The 1860 census lists him as a prosperous merchant in Scott County, Kentucky.
