Most sources today believe he was 6 feet 4 inches in height, but some sources differ. For example, in February 1864, at age 55, Lincoln's height was said to be 6' 3¾" (192 cm) in his stocking feet, as measured by Francis Carpenter, the New York State portrait painter, who stayed at the White House for 6 months in 1864 sketching and painting the President. Lincoln was tall as a boy, and some sources say that he was over 6 feet by the age of 16.

Lincoln himself stated in a letter: "If any personal description of me is thought desirable, it may be said, I am, in height, six feet, four inches, nearly."
At six feet four inches, Lincoln was (so far) the tallest US President.
He was exactly 6' 4" tall.
6ft 4inches.

He was six feet four inches in height; a little stooped in the shoulders; his legs and arms were long; his feet and hands large; his forehead was high. His head was over the average size. His eyes were gray. His face and forehead were wrinkled even in his youth. They deepened with age, 'as streams their channels deeper wear.' Generally he was a very sad man, and his countenance indicated it. But when he warmed up all sadness vanished, his face was radiant and glowing, and almost gave expression to his thoughts before his tongue would utter them.
