Browsing through the internet for "Mary Alice Kemery" I found an interesting conspiracy theory about Lincoln and his connection to Linda, written by someone saying he was her close personal friend. Check this out, it's really interesting. http://web2.airmail.net/dsh440/roots.html Is any of you familiar with this? Any thoughts, Aselzion? , morgana IP: Logged |

Greetings...Well Morgana... I have to say I was aware of some of this story from my days with Linda. Some day I may reveal all of the connections that she mentioned.. . but it is long and complicated, and to be honest I can't recall all of the pesky details.. suffice it to say that a good deal of the "proofs" are based on the physiognomical similarities found in a collection of pictures that Linda kept in a scrap book, that she showed me long ago in Colorado. She did tell me about the lithograph, and Ray Neff. I do not know the person who penned that article though. But Linda knew many, many people. So.. let me say that it is more than a little possible that indeed, Linda was the great (plus or minus a great) granddaughter of honest Abe. Pax, and Merry Christmas... A IP: Logged |

Morgana there is a string on this at http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum5/HTML/000022.html The topic is Linda and Lincoln and was started by Randall on May,20,2001. It is in the Linda's Life Forum. Great job Morgana finding this out! ------------------ "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." -Les Brown- IP: Logged |

Thanks for answering, Aselzion! You're a very kind person indeed, taking the time to answer all our questions. Personally, I think you're great!! Did Linda believe that about her being related to Lincoln? And who's the person "88", do you perhaps know or have a clue at least? You don't have to answer right away, take your time and enjoy the holidays, it's just that I'm at work right now and have a lot of time on my hands... Have a great holiday (and everything else too, of course)! , morgana IP: Logged |

I should've known that someone's dug up that article before me. OK, so I guess this'll be yet another short thread, then... (sigh)

Hey again M...Thanks for the vote of confidence.. I wish my boss felt the same way.. ah well, such is Life! At any rate. HH was a secret or not so secret code that Linda used when referring to Howard Hughes. Did you catch the name Hughes in that article? 8 is the 8th letter of the alphabet, so 2 8's is HH or Howard Hughes. It's an interesting and INVOLVED story. It occupied a good deal of Linda's life researching, so I'd say YES she definitely believed it. ANd she did claim to own the lithograph that was mentioned, though I don't know what happened to it after her death. It was reputedly worth ALOT of money, and Linda was quite indebted to various people, so.. I dunno. I cannot say if it is 100% true, but there are some amazing "coincidences" if it isn't! Best wishes... A IP: Logged |

Of course! I thought of Hughes, but I wasn't sure.Yes, amazing coincidences, and I, for one, am quite inclined to believe it. Why not, anyway? Stranger things have happened. For example, people believing the Darwin evolution story despite of the famous missing link. , morgana IP: Logged |
