Linda, I found this on http://blogs.thetimes-tribune.com/pages/...r-obeirne/ There's also a photo of him here.

"After the war, General O’Beirne was the Provost Marshall of the District of Columbia on the night when President Lincoln was assassinated. According to his obituary that appeared in the New York Times on Feb 18, 1917, General O’Beirne took part in the pursuit of John Wilkes Booth and was in charge at the deathbed of President Lincoln. General O’Beirne served the federal government in several roles after the war working in the immigration service and as a U.S. Representative during the Boer War.
