Andrew Johnson - Mistress

[Steve]

Does anybody know what happened to Ella Starr after the assassination?

In regards to Jerry's theory about Ella, I find it extremely unlikely because if Booth had a woman "entertain" Johnson, he likely would've had to inform Atzerodt as a precaution to prevent Atzerodt being scared away from completing the attack on Johnson upon hearing a woman's voice. That nothing like this came out during the trial and investigation when Atzerodt would have every reason to bring it to light is good reason to believe it didn't happen.

As for Eusebia and Johnson. I find it unlikely she would go to him before he was President to ask for a pardon when he really had no influence over Lincoln in those matters. Besides how would the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, learn that she had done that if both she and Johnson had not told anybody in two decades (well for Johnson, one decade)?
