No. He spent less than 12 months, total in attending all schools as a youth. Each one was very small and the lessons were most often taught orally and schools thus got the nickname "blab" schools. During the winter of 1820 Abraham Lincoln and his sister Sarah attended a school taught by Andrew Crawford. In 1822 Sarah and Abraham walked four miles to attend a school taught by James Swaney. In 1824 the Lincoln children attended a school taught by Azel Dorsey.


What church did Abraham Lincoln attend in Springfield Illinois?

By most accounts, Abraham Lincoln was not religious, although he was certainly from a Protestant Christian background. But there is little evidence that he attended any church regularly for much of his life. However, Presbyterian sources say that in 1850, after the Lincolns’ son Eddie died, the family was comforted by the pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Springfield; Pastor James Smith became a friend and support to Mrs. Lincoln, who did join that church, and at certain times, Mr. Lincoln went with her to services at the First Presbyterian Church.
