Gene, the entire collection of Lincoln Assassination files from the National Archives are now digitized and available online for free at Fold3.com. Fold3 is a fee for service online project in partnership with the National Archives. They have been digitizing military records, mostly, these past few years, though they do have newspapers, census records, city directories, and more, too. But some records are free, so check it out. It is very interesting to see the original, handwritten letters, records, interrogations, and more in the collection as opposed to transcriptions. You can search by keyword, too. Enjoy!
