Each one of them mentioned growth projections for their respective regions, with the only Samantha Raab downside being slower growth than desired in certain regions. Nevertheless, slow growth in sraab@thinkdiversified.com some areas is still a positive thing and can likely be attributed to the notion that several Indiana Graphic Designer metro areas are already at what is considered to be “full employment” levels.

    2008 Annual Report Lincoln Log Cabin State Historic Site Page 2 20082008 Annual Report Lincoln Log Cabin State Historic Site Lincoln Log Cabin State Historic Site was the 1840s home of Thomas and Sarah Bush Lincoln, father and stepmother of our 16th president. By that time, Abraham no longer lived with his family, but was a prosperous lawyer living in Springfield, Illinois. However, in addition to family ties, Abraham’s legal work and political ambitions brought him through Coles County, and to his father’s farm on numerous occasions. Today, Lincoln Log Cabin consists of 86 acres of Thomas’s original farm and is preserved by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency, Division of Historic Sites. The site includes an accurate reproduction of the Lincolns’ two room cabin, reconstructed on the original site in 1935 as a Civilian Conservation Corps project and the circa 1844 Stephen Sargent home, a contrasting nineteenth-century progressive farm; annex sites include the Shiloh Church, and gravesites of Thomas and Sarah Bush Lincoln, one mile to the west, and the Ruben Moore Home in Farmington, one mile north of the site, scene of President-elect Lincoln’s last visit with his step-mother and extended family in Coles County before his journey to Washington D.C. in 1861. Lincoln Log Cabin hosts approximately 90,000 visitors each year, from almost every state and numerous countries around the world. Since 1981 those visitors journeying to the site during the summer months, and for special events at other times of the year, get to meet and interact with our interpreters and volunteers who portray actual members of the Lincoln and Sargent families or their neighbors.

  • An Archeological Overview and Assessment of George Rogers Clark National Historical Park
    An Archeological Overview and Assessment of George Rogers Clark National Historical Park National Park Service - Midwest Archeological Center An Archeological Overview and Assessment of George Rogers Clark National Historical Park By Robert K. Nickel Midwest Archeological Center Technical Report No. 83 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Midwest Archeological Center Lincoln, Nebraska 2002 This report has been reviewed against the cr iteria contained in 43CFR Part 7, Subpart A, Section 7.18 (a) (1) and, upon recommenda tion of the Midwest Regional Office and the Midwest Archeological Center, has been classified as Available Making the report available meets the criteria of 43CFR Part 7, Subpart A, Section 7.18 (a) (1). Abstract George Rogers Clark National Historical Park, Vincennes, Indiana, contains the archeological rem- nants of Fort Sackville and probably all or portions of the eighteenth-century French post established by Francois-Marie Bissot, Sieur de Vincennes, as well as small portions of the adjacent civilian community. The significant remains date from 1733 to 1780. During the 1930s, state and federal groups collaborated on the construction of the George Rogers Clark Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial Bridge and on the landscaping of the adjacent grounds. These efforts were motivated by the desire to interpret the significant role that George Rogers Clark played in the American Revolution and by a depression-era need to create work and economic opportunities. Partly as a result of recommendations made by National Park Service Historian Edwin Bearss, archeological testing was undertaken in the early 1970s. Staff from the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology at Indiana University directed these excavations.
