RE: Booth's Body
Just wanted to add, here is what the Baltimore Sun had to say on February 19, 1869, after Booth's body was placed in the Weaver vault:

"The remains of J. Wilkes Booth were quietly put away in the vault of Mr. J. H. Weaver, the undertaker, at Greenmount Cemetery yesterday morning [February 18], without ceremony. There was no one present on the occasion but Mr. Weaver and his assistants."

The body was moved to the Weaver vault shortly after it was identified to the satisfaction of the Booth family.
