Every town has one...a particular character who amuses or, frustrates, the populace with his mostly benign antics. And having the vagueness or confusion of a famous name certainly doesn't hurt the cause. Mr. Anson Lincoln used his pseudo-fame to his advantage, for sure. Strange anomaly: despite the article saying she died in 1878, his mother, Maria Houghton Ward actually died in 1882, yet her will was not put into probate until 1892, ten years later, for whatever reason.
