  • Former Governors of Illinois
    FORMER GOVERNORS OF ILLINOIS Shadrach Bond (D-R*) — 1818-1822 Illinois’ first Governor was born in Maryland and moved to the North - west Territory in 1794 in present-day Monroe County. Bond helped organize the Illinois Territory in 1809, represented Illinois in Congress and was elected Governor without opposition in 1818. He was an advo- cate for a canal connecting Lake Michigan and the Illinois River, as well as for state education. A year after Bond became Gov ernor, the state capital moved from Kaskaskia to Vandalia. The first Illinois Constitution prohibited a Governor from serving two terms, so Bond did not seek reelection. Bond County was named in his honor. He is buried in Chester. (1773- 1832) Edward Coles (D-R*) — 1822-1826 The second Illinois Governor was born in Virginia and attended William and Mary College. Coles inherited a large plantation with slaves but did not support slavery so he moved to a free state. He served as private secretary under President Madison for six years, during which he worked with Thomas Jefferson to promote the eman- cipation of slaves. He settled in Edwardsville in 1818, where he helped free the slaves in the area. As Governor, Coles advocated the Illinois- Michigan Canal, prohibition of slavery and reorganization of the state’s judiciary. Coles County was named in his honor. He is buried in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. (1786-1868) Ninian Edwards (D-R*) — 1826-1830 Before becoming Governor, Edwards was appointed the first Governor of the Illinois Territory by President Madison, serving from 1809 to 1818. Born in Maryland, he attended college in Pennsylvania, where he studied law, and then served in a variety of judgeships in Kentucky.

  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.

  • “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage
    Chapter Six “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage (1840-1842) In 1842, Lincoln married Mary Todd, a woman who was to make his domestic life “a burning, scorching hell,” as “terrible as death and as gloomy as the grave,” according to one who knew him well.1 COURTING MARY OWENS Lincoln’s courtship of Mary Todd is poorly documented, but indirect light on it is shed by his earlier, well-documented romance with Mary S. Owens. Born in Kentucky a few months before Lincoln, Mary Owens received a good education at the home of her wealthy father, a planter in Green County.2 She “was very different from Anne Rutledge.” Not only was she older, bigger, better-educated, and raised “in the most refined society,” she also “dressed much finer than any of the ladies who lived about New 1 William H. Herndon, quoted in Michael Burlingame, The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1994), 268. 2 Nathaniel Owens, out “of his deep concern for the education of his children . maintained a private school in his pretentious plantation home, to which came instructors from Transylvania University, Ky., to give instruction to his children and those of his neighbors.” On his 5000-acre plantation he grew cotton and tobacco, which he farmed with the help of two dozen slaves. Notes on Nathaniel Owens, Fern Nance Pond Papers, Menard County Historical Museum, Petersburg, Illinois. According to William B. Allen, Owens “was a farmer of good education for the times, and of a high order of native intellect.

    David J. Baker 1878-1879, 1888-1897 © Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission Image courtesy of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library A member of a prominent southern Illinois family, David Jewett Baker was born in Kaskaskia on November 20, 1834, the third son of Connecticut native David Jewett Baker and Sarah Fairchild Baker. The couple had moved to Kaskaskia in 1819, where he served a long tenure as Probate Judge of Randolph County, “the equal of any contemporary lawyer at the Illinois Bar,” according to court historian James E. Babb.1 Strongly opposed to the introduction of slavery into the state, the elder Baker engaged in a physical confrontation with the pro-slavery Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas Reynolds on a Kaskaskia street in 1824.2 According to a county historian, Baker sustained a bludgeon mark during the altercation that remained “to his dying day.”3 In late 1830, Governor Ninian Edwards named Baker to fill the unexpired term of deceased U.S. Senator John McLean. Returning to Illinois, Baker was United States District Attorney at the time of his son’s birth.4 Acquiring an early education at area schools, the younger Baker graduated with honors in 1854 from Shurtleff College in Alton, then studied law under his father’s tutelage. In 1855, his brother Edward L. Baker, also an attorney and publisher of the 2 Alton Daily Telegraph, purchased the Illinois State Journal, a Springfield newspaper strongly identified with the new Republican Party.5 David Baker, after admittance to the Illinois bar in 1856, began his practice in Alton.

  • Wilson, William 1819-1848
    William Wilson 1819-1848 © Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission Image courtesy of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library William Wilson succeeded William P. Foster, one of the original Supreme Court justices, who never served in the position. Born in Loudoun County, Virginia, on April 27, 1794, Wilson studied law under John Cook, a distinguished attorney who became minister to France in the early 1800s. After military service in the War of 1812, Wilson moved to Kentucky and then in 1817 to southeastern Illinois Territory, where he was admitted to the bar. “He was very popular and greatly esteemed,” wrote a biographer, “and before he had been in Illinois even one year he received fifteen votes in the legislature for an associate justiceship in the Supreme Court, which had just been organized.”1 He lost the election by six votes. Then in August 1819, at age twenty-five, he won the legislative election to fill the seat of Justice Foster, making him the youngest Supreme Court justice in Illinois history.2 The following year Wilson married Mary S. Davidson of Wheeling, Virginia (now West Virginia), and they became the parents of ten children.3 When the General Assembly reorganized the judiciary in 1825, legislators elected Wilson as the state’s third Chief Justice, replacing Thomas Reynolds.4 Wilson held the office for twenty-three years, the longest serving Chief Justice in Illinois history. “As a writer,” recalled Springfield 2 attorney James C.
