Edwin, Asia, and Junius, Jr. all had children still alive in 1911, and Asia had at least two sons in the theatrical world. Dave Taylor's BoothieBarn has some excellent photos. Would love to read more of this article.

Laurie-- yes, I agree with you, there were more Booth survivors than the article states. This article, like many printed in those days, from what I understand, contains mistakes. As you will see tomorrow once I get the article up larger, it even calls Junius Booth's sister Jane an "old maid" which we know is not true.

None-the-less, the article does contain some accurate facts, but I found the photos to be most interesting. The photo of Sydney Booth in this article is one I have never seen before.
