RE: Booth escape route north
#1 - The only reference that I have ever seen to Booth's kidnapping plot having included getting fresh horses is in Smoot's book and says that he heard from Atzerodt that the fresh horses would come from a man named Hunt[t] in T.B. The only man named Hunt[t] in T.B. in 1864 or 1865 was my great-grandfather.
#2 - Please identify George Baird. #3 - The resident of the Surrattsville area (about two miles south of the village) was named Walter Griffin, not Griffith. #4 - There was no Wylie within the Surrattsville area (unless he was a coyote). Wasn't Judge Wylie a resident of D.C.? #5 - I know the distance from the railing to the floor at Ford's Theatre. Go find it for yourself -- like good researchers do! |
