Abraham Lincoln marries Mary Anne Todd, a Kentucky native, on November 4, 1842, at her sister's house in Springfield, Illinois. Mary Todd, nicknamed Molly, was the daughter of rich parents and attended elite all-girls institutions where she excelled in cultural studies and the arts. Mary Todd, more than her husband, was a fervent abolitionist.
