On
Friday, Barbara Stroud-Borth welcomed guests to the Mount Pulaski
Courthouse for a celebration of the 201st birthday of Mary Lincoln.
Born Mary Todd in 1818, the wife and first lady of Abraham Lincoln
shares her birth year with the formation of our state.
Guests enjoyed the popular Mary Todd almond cake with a choice of
coffee or punch and spent a good deal of time visiting and sharing
knowledge about the wife of our beloved 16th President.
