Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican President.



It depends on what is meant by modern Republicanism. Party platforms change over time, so candidates of a century ago do not necessarily support the same issues as candidates of the same party today. That being stated, yes, Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican Party Presidential Nominee to win (in 1860).
