It is speculated that Abraham Lincoln suffered from Marfan's syndrome.
Lincoln was an advocate of sending freed slaves back to Africa.
Andrew Johnson became vice president just 1 month and 11 days before Lincoln's assassination. Had Lincoln been assassinated 1 month and 12 days earlier, the 17th president would have been Hannibal Hamlin.
Lincoln had seen John Wilkes Boothe perform at Ford's Theater several times. He admired his performances so much that he even invited Boothe to the White House. Boothe refused every invitation.
