1945 Onstot's Home Lincoln's New Salem IL Postcard

This 1945 postcard features the Onstot's Home in Lincoln's New Salem, Illinois, a place that takes us back to the days when small-town living was at the heart of American life.

The home, originally part of the historic frontier village where Abraham Lincoln spent his youth, stands as a reminder of the close-knit community that flourished in this quiet corner of Illinois.

The Onstot family, who were early settlers in the area, played an important role in the development of the village.
