S. Lincoln Chair Company. They did not manufacture a chair called the "Lincoln chair". Wm. H. Lincoln was my great grandfather, so I think I know more about this subject than "Hoosier Historian" does. The Lincoln Chair building was built in 1913. It was actually the WEST end of the United Way Agency complex that burned on Christmas Eve, 2009. Please visit my web site to get your facts straight. I have done much research so that I could have a historical marker placed at the site of the Orinoco building. This marker also includes information about the Lincoln Chair Company. Both companies were headed up by my great grandfather, Wm. Harvey Lincoln, and then by my grandfather, Wm. Lucas Lincoln after the death of my great grandfather. Thank you.
