Generous reader, traverse with me the ensuing pages and they shall open to you a sealed book. They shall lead along the neglected path of unwritten history and reveal to you, with care, an interesting fact in the story of America smost remarkable man. They may tear the veil of popular modesty only to discover the naked truth. The truth cannot hurt the living or the dead. It is often a good popular nervine to disturb the commonplace with the heroic, the romantic, the tragic. It is better still to replace popular shadow of doubt with popular sunshine of fidelity. It is said, there is a skeleton in every closet and that must not be disturbed.

James Harrison Cathey was born in North Carolina on December 1, 1866 to Benjamin and Mariah (Conley) Cathey. He and his wife, Mary (Caler), had seven children. His research shed further light on some enigmatic statements found in William H. Herndon's original (and suppressed) manuscript and Ward Lamon's Life of Lincoln regarding the paternity of the sixteenth United States President. His work was used as the basis for James Caswell Coggins' own contributions to the subject: Abraham Lincoln: A North Carolinian (1926) and The Eugenics of President Abraham Lincoln (1940). Cathey passed away on September 1, 1929 in Jackson, North Carolina.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, providing an unmatched historical insight through meticulous research, presents the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln. It offers a unique perspective on his early life, as told by his alleged half-brother and other relatives. The volume delves into the intriguing debate surrounding Lincoln's parentage, examining the persistent tradition that connects him to the Enloe family of North Carolina. Through interviews with elderly descendants of Lincoln's supposed father, and an analysis of oral histories passed down through generations, the author sheds light on the circumstances that may have led to Lincoln's birth outside of wedlock. The book's exploration of this lesser-known aspect of Lincoln's life adds a new dimension to our understanding of the man who would become one of America's most iconic presidents.
