again the info that a Deringer was found on Booth after he was shot at Garrett's.
The article "Fireball Run & John Wilkes Booth’s Derringer" says: "After a massive manhunt, Booth was gunned down in a farmhouse in Virginia. On his body was a second identical matching derringer, etc."
Don't know how "historical reliable" this site is, or if it is (with respect) a "fun site". Anyway, the video and photo's of the Deringer which Gifford found are in my opinion very nice!
Hmmm...I wonder where they got this information?!
But since it is "Believe it or Not", I think for the time being I will definitely be in the "not" category! 
I'm with you, and I think a lot are with us!

Nice list! Thank you!
The two revolvers were definitely the .36 caliber Colt Model 1851 Navy revolver and the .44 Colt Model 1860 Army revolver, I mentioned before.
The Booth Deringer pistol
