Craig, Mr. James O. Hall wrote an article titled "The Mystery of Lincoln's Guard" in the May 1982 issue of the Surratt Society News.

Mr. Hall concluded his article by saying, "There are Parker descendants in the Washington area today, but they do not bear the Parker name. They have no pictures of him and no family records left by him."

So it sure seems unlikely that a photo will surface, but who knows...

Roger, Good information. I guess that if there was a photo of him somewhere it would have belonged to a family member. Too bad police records didn't take photos of their officers back in those days.
