Notes
Very little is known about Reuben Lincoln. After being born in Nebraska, his family moved back to Wisconsin near where his grandparents lived (Almond, Wisconsin). He registered for the draft for WWI, but it is unknown if he served overseas. After WWI, the 1920 US Census shows him living in Scotia, Nebraska with his parents, working as a salesman for the Standard Oil company. The 1930 Census shows him married to a lady named Vlasta M. Lincoln, who was born in Nebraska around 1895, and whose parents were from Czechoslovakia. It is unknown what happened to Vlasta Lincoln. The 1930 Census states they were married when Reuben was 29 and she was 30, so around 1925. Reuben marries again at age 65 in Minnesota to a Winona M. Glaeser on 20-Feb-1962 (she was 53 at the time, born around 1909). It is unknown what happened to Winona after that. Reuben Lincoln died in Minnesota at age 68.
