RE: John Surratt's real parents?
Good point Eva, and this is something that Dr. Steers pointed out in his classic "Blood On The Moon" book about the conspiracy and murder. Even the kidnap plot would have been enough to send them all to the gallows.

But I am not even certain that Lincoln would have allowed anyone to hang for a failed kidnap plot against him during the war, and certainly not a woman. No proof of course, just a hunch.

A successful kidnapping that resulted in their apprehension and conviction. Possibly yes. But even again...I am not 100% sure. And I don't believe for a minute that AL would not have pardoned Surratt.(Mary)
