Deceased was born at Dorchester, Mass. June 6th, 1812. He was married October 3rd, 1833, to Miss Jane Maria Babcock, of Littlefield, Conn.

Elder Lincoln suffered persecution and much affliction with the Saints in Missouri and in 1856 he was arrested on a charge- but falsely - of arson and thrown into prison, where he kept confined for eleven months without a trial, but at the end of this time, through the indefatigable exertions of his faithful wife, obtained a hearing, and was honorably acquitted. In 1857 he came to Utah, moved to Bountiful, where he resided chiefly until the time of his decease.

Elder Lincoln was a devoted husband, a kind father and faithful friend. he died as he lived, in full faith of the gospel, and in hope of resurrection to eternal life. He leaves a family and a large circle of friend to mourn his lose. -COM Ogden Junction Desert News, Salt Lake City, Sat. Dec. 9, 1876 - Transcribed by Candi H. - 2009
