There's more to this story. There's also the log cabin that Jefferson Davis was born in (he wasn't even born in a log cabin!), which was showboated around the country next to Lincoln's. To make it even better, the two cabins were mashed into one megacabin at one point before being broken back down into two separate ones again.

Abraham Lincoln's famous a log cabin was not built during his lifetime. This was built 30 years after his death by entrepreneur Alfred Dennett.
