The story of his life covers his grandmother's move from Nova Scotia in 1884, her marriage to John Rockwell, and settling in Providence, Rhode Island. Their son, George Lovejoy Rockwell, and father of Lincoln Rockwell, was in vaudeville and even headlined at the Palace Theater in New York in 1928. Lincoln himself was born on March 9, 1918, in Bloomington, Illinois. Much of his childhood was spent in Maine with his father after his parents' divorce. As his teens rolled by, he attended Atlantic City High School for four years before staying with his grandmother and aunt in Providence.
While spending summers in Maine, lobstering and working as a waiter, he bought his first car. Then, in the fall of 1938, he entered Brown University. It was during this time that he met his first wife. It was during this time that he found communism and liberalism rampant there.
He enlisted in the Navy in 1940 and rose from ensign to commander during his time in. Released in 1945 and called back in 1950, he became increasingly interested in politics. After leaving the Navy again, he began his political activities. Publishing, rallies, picketing, jail, etc., believing he could be president by 1974.
But it all ended on August 25, 1967, when he was gunned down. Betrayed by one of his own.
