This original oil painting by John Ackroyd, is currently on
display at the museum.
"The Abraham Enloe Cabin" was the former home of Nancy Hanks, mother of
Abraham Lincoln. Nancy birthed her black-haired baby boy, named
Abraham, about mid-February 1805. The content of this painting is
based upon the collaborative work of Tom Melton and John Ackroyd, Senior
Rutherford County resident artist. Tom contributed his life's
collected information about the traditional birthplace of America's 16th
President to the museum and this painting is based on the cabin's foundation
and depicts both Tom and John's mutualy agreed upon concept-reconstruction.
The Abraham Enloe cabin and farm were located on the hill above Puzzle
Creek, some four miles northwest of the Bostic Lincoln Center. The
cabin was described as located between Cherry Mountain and the Concord
Baptist Church.
