Mary Ann Todd Lincoln (December 18, 1818 - July 16, 1882) was the wife of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States. She had previously been courted by Lincoln's lifelong professional rival, Stephen Douglas. During her later years, she suffered from mental illness.

Mary Ann Todd Lincoln (1818-1877) was particularly devastated by the deaths of three of her sons, and her husband's defeat in the 1864 election. Already a temperamental woman, she grew increasingly difficult to be around, although her husband loved and was devoted to her just the same.

While on a trip to St. Louis, both Lincolns caught typhoid. Abraham Lincoln survived but Mary died from it.
