Lincoln was once called the Robinson Street School
because it was located on Robinson Street. In
1911, the school was renamed Lincoln School in honor
of Abraham Lincoln (1805-1965), 16th President of the
U.S. Five days after General Robert E. Lee's
(1807-1870) surrender Lincoln was assassinated, while
seeing performance at Ford's Theatre in Washington
D.C., by John Wilkes Booth (1838 - 1865), a prominent
actor who thought this would help the south.
Twelve days later Booth was tracked down and killed by
Union soldiers.
