Ford's Theatre Exhibits - Excellent site for those who couldn't make DC

[BettyO]

Great exhibit - and great website - a few errors (I was surprised inasmuch as this is Ford's Theatre!)

David Herold was 22 years old - NOT age 19! He was born in June of 1843. John Surratt Jr. was 20 years old and was the same age as Powell (and a week older to the very day) having been born April 13, 1844; Powell's birthday was April 22, 1844. Minor things - still all in all the on-line exhibit is facinating!

Likewise, a friend of mine (Nancy Griffith - ex-Surratt Society President) went to a lecture the other night given by a college professor. The speaker blatantly stated that John Surratt Jr. was "hanged with his mother, Mary Surratt!"

Where do people GET this stuff?!?
