John Minchin Lloyd - Who was he...really?

[Laurie Verge]

How interesting about Mudd's family requiring respect and Mrs. Surratt's earning her photo in the center - especially since it was Dr. Mudd who introduced Booth into the Surratt family. I wonder if the money of Dr. Mudd's father, Henry Lowe Mudd, and the prestige of the Ewing family had any influence on the Pittman decision?

John Yates Beall did do some privateering in the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay, I believe, before turning his attention northward.
