Henry (Harry) Lincoln
Henry (Harry) Lincoln was the third child of Nedabiah Lincoln Sr. and Sarah (Sally) Hodges Lincoln. He was born January 12, 1787 in Taunton, Massachusetts. Nedabiah Sr., living in Taunton, was poor and had extra mouths to feed. Nedabiah II was the oldest boy and the most help to Nedabiah Sr., so Henry, the next oldest boy was sent (in 1795) to live in Greenfield, Saratoga County, NY, with his mother's brother Timothy Hodges (who had no children). This helped both families. Henry became quite successful, so his parents and several siblings moved to Greenfield ca 1818. Henry owned a very large farm and was one of the wealthiest farmers in the Town of Greenfield. Henry married Hannah White, who was born on May 13, 1787. They had 9 children:

John D – 1822-1874
Henry S – 1824-1858
Hannah Jane – 1827-1885
