Lincoln Boyhood Memorial Webbox LbNA #56933

The answers to the questions in the clues for this webbox are located in Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial in southern Indiana. Letterboxes are not allowed to be physically placed in national parks and national memorials administered by the U. S. National Park Service. So, I have created this webbox. You must actually visit the area of the clues; however, you need to go to the Web to obtain your finders stamp and sign the log book.

Enter Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial which is in Lincoln City, Indiana. It is on State Highway 162 about 8 miles south of the I-64/U. S. 231 junction.

Start walking up to the front door of the Memorial Visitor Center. On the curved outside walls of the building you will see five very large relief sculpture stone panels. Look for the one for Kentucky. Above the panel engraved on the building wall are three lines of words. In the 2nd line what is the 5th word _____?

Now walk on the trail to the Pioneer Cemetery. It goes north from the parking lot and past the big flagpole. When you arrive at the cemetery look for the colorful interpretive sign on an angle in front of the cemetery titled “Nancy Hanks Lincoln Grave”. In the 1st (top) paragraph, in the 3rd line, what is the 4th word _____?

To create the mystery word, put the word from the second question on the end of the word from the first question (without spaces). Paste the mystery word into this URL (replacing the question marks “???” with the mystery word):
