    I live in Boonville, IN, just south west of the Lincoln's boyhood home. It's rumored that Linclon frequently used the library in Boonville which has earned the city the phrase "where Lincoln learned the law."

      The official map address is Haubstadt, but if you look up Warrenton, and zoom in: you see the Log Inn. The Log Inn brochure has both town names mentioned, with Haubstadt listed first.
      The tie breaker for me, was when I typed in the name of the place, in UA-cam, where you register new videos, and it pulled-up Haubstadt. This feature links to online maps, and if people click on the link, they’ll be taken to a map of how to get there.
