The subject here is a log cabin with a stone chimney and a shingled roof, a combination that suggests a somewhat more substantial homestead than the simplest frontier shelters, which often had mud-and-stick chimneys or none at all. The board groups it with Abraham Lincoln because log cabins became closely tied to his story: he was born in a one-room log cabin in Kentucky in 1809, and his family moved to Indiana and then Illinois when he was a boy. Such dwellings were common across the Ohio and Mississippi valleys in the early 1800s, so the picture is best read as a window onto the everyday building of that period.
