Short summary
Rebecca decides to play matchmaker to Tom and Nancy, two people Daniel doesn't think go together. Considering how much they fight each other he might be right. But Rebecca thinks she knows better.
Interesting episode in that the couple Rebecca plays matchmaker to become the parents of future president Abraham Lincoln.
Though the episode provides an entertaining tale of the courtship of Abraham Lincoln's parents, it is fictional and anachronistic. "Daniel Boone" takes place before and during the American Revolution; Thomas Lincoln (b. 1778) and Nancy Hanks (b. 1784) were not even close to adulthood during this timeframe.
