Just stumbled across this interesting collection of eyewitness accounts:

(I assume there is a volume before it, and one after.)

Fantastico!! (That's Italian for "fantastic". I'm sure you appreciate the translation.)

The Internet Archive has thousands of digitized folders of Lincoln material from the Lincoln Financial Foundation Collection. Quite a few of the folders are assassination related. Here is a link to a listing of all 3,000+ entries from the collection on the Internet Archive:

There are also other accounts available for surnames beginning with A-E, F-H, J-R (that you mention) and S-Z. I don’t know what happened to surnames beginning with the letter I. Maybe none was recorded or I missed it.
