Image of John W. Clampitt - John E. - 07-15-2015 11:15 AM Hello all, For those interested, here is an image of John W. Clampitt. I think there are only 1 or 2 other images of him available. This one came from Genealogy.com. RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - BettyO - 07-15-2015 11:43 AM Wow - He's a whale of a guy! Thanks, John - never seen this before! RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - RJNorton - 07-15-2015 01:10 PM I second Betty; thanks, John! RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - John E. - 07-15-2015 02:19 PM I think this is the only other one I had seen before: Does anyone else have a different version? RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - L Verge - 07-15-2015 02:23 PM A relative of Mr. Clampitt was at the dedication of Frederick Aiken's tombstone a few years back and said that he would send some papers that he had. That was the last we heard from him. I have never seen either of these photos of Clampitt. As an aside, I found it ironic that a Clampitt relative should come to the Aiken dedication since Mr. Clampitt forged checks against their law firm... RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - John E. - 07-15-2015 02:28 PM Here's the only SUPPOSED image we have of Aiken. Could it have been mistakenly attributed to him instead of Clampitt? There is a slight resemblance. RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - L Verge - 07-15-2015 02:30 PM I remember questioning that several years ago. For some reason, I thought it too old for Aiken in 1865. RE: Image of John W. Clampitt - RJNorton - 07-17-2015 01:24 PM Many thanks to Jim Garrett for sending this image of Clampitt. It's from When Lincoln Died by Ralph Borreson. Credit to Lloyd Ostendorf.
