Boston Corbett

[maharba]

Thanks for the information, Roger. I'll look harder to find a marriage and the family of Susan R. Corbett. And now I know how to start a new thread, I'll try that this weekend on Lincoln. The Cloud County KS Probate Judge Daniel Leander Brown was apparently a bit of a rounder, himself. He had tried to get Corbett going on an apparent lecture circuit. Each time,
Boston Corbett never even got on topic, never caught up with
Booth or checked into Andersonville either. Instead, Corbett began his yelling gospel routine, and the audience would filter out. Daniel Brown had been a sheriff in LaPorte Indiana and likely knew how to use his guns, when necessary. His grandfather was a Capt. John Brown. He was the notary (and
perhaps more?) on Corbett's disability pension. The pension reads like Boston Corbett was all stove up and maybe not far from death. I wonder how enfeebled he really was, physically,
at that date.
