Sarah Danielson Lincoln was the daughter of Gen. Timothy Danielson and Elizabeth Sykes and the wife of Dr. Asa Lincoln.
From "Historical Celebration of the Town of Brimfield, Mass.," by Charles McEwen Hyde, C.W. Bryan Co., 1879, p. 232:
"She was ... the companion of her father (Gen. Danielson) at Washington and Richmond, where she shone in the fashionable circles of the capitals of the nation and Virginia. I remember her distinctly in the maturity of her womanhood. She had the port of a queen and the manners of a duchess...Her power of colloquialism, the finished ease of her manners were remarkable. The highest evidence of her appreciation at Washington was that a duel was the result of a contest over her companionship in a cotillion at a Washington assembly."
In 1903, seventy-three years after Sarah's death, her son James Danielson Lincoln, in honor of his mother Sarah, donated funds to build a new public library wing in Brimfield, Massachusetts.
