RE: Were There Assassination Attempts on Jefferson Davis?
Gentlemen did not require bodyguards so the answer would be no. Ward Hill Lamon was Lincoln's friend and self appointed guard. I'm sure Davis had an armed friend with him on occasion but for the most part I would say no. When Davis left the Church after getting Lee's message that Richmond was going to fall he didn't leave with an entourage, he left alone.
