No, Lawndale is not part of Lincoln. There is a Jefferson in Lincoln, You need to know whether it is north or south. As a rule of thumb I suggest never using MapQuest. I find them terribly inaccurate. Try Google maps. Cheryl Rothwell On 10/27/07, Steve <kkona3@yahoo.com> wrote: > > Is Lawndale part of Lincoln?
