RE: Assassination Trivia - AussieMick - 08-12-2018
Well done Steve and Laurie. Thanks to Eva for great assistance.
First off yes, Laurie. In Australia we dont have bricklayers ... they are called brickies (carpenters are 'chippies' and electricians are 'chippies').
Explanation for my confused question: I was searching the net concerning the assassination and came across this ...
https://www.google.com.au/search?q=john+minchin+lloyd&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiXyJjIqejcAhWM-2EKHftUBPoQ_AUICigB&biw=1037&bih=562
What you get may depend on your recent google searches I think, but I scrolled down and clicked on the image (associated with a newspaper report on John M. Lloyd) of what I now think is Milligan. It brings up John Minchin Lloyd through WikiVisually ...
https://wikivisually.com/wiki/John_Lloyd
But if you 'right-click' on the following image and do a Google search on the image it give a 'best guess' of Milligan.
AS Laurie says the image cannot be LLoyd (if anything he is far too well-dressed).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_M._Lloyd
Milligan's story is here ...

Please don't judge John Lloyd too harshly in terms of his social caste. He really came from a fairly-well-to-do Southern Maryland family. Their old home still stands in Banks o'Dee -- not too far from Port Tobacco. I don't recall anything being written about him before his run-in with the conspirators, and then I think he found himself between a rock and a hard place. I'd be drinking too if I knew my landlords had placed weapons in my abode at a desperate time in the war.
When you were on that site, did you see the clipping in the line beneath about the party that the Lloyds held in later years in their DC home? There is mention made of an Angela Petty being in attendance. Angela married into the Early family near my hometown and was my music teacher 66+ years ago. She was older than dirt, but could still tickle those ivories.
I have told some of you the story of her grandson being a wonderful musician also. He was the organist at a nearby Catholic church, but also had a slight drinking problem. During one mass, as the communicants were taking communion, he struck up St. Louis Blues on the organ. He wasn't a church-going Catholic after that...
Notice the name Huntt and also Burroughs on the guest list also. Yep, some of my relatives.

I agree, Laurie, about 'social casting'. I did feel for John Lloyd ... and thought 'there but for the grace of God'.
Another point ... I kept trying to make sure all my hyperlinks were correct but made a mistake for Lambden Milligan ...
it should be

Who is this man?

RE: Assassination Trivia - Rob Wick - 12-14-2018
Forgive me for answering this Roger, but it's one I know. It's Luther Byron Baker, evil henchman of Lafayette Baker. It was taken around 1863 when Byron, as most people called him, was quartermaster of the First District of Columbia Cavalry, which Lafayette had nominal charge of, although Everton Conger, who held the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, held field command given that Lafe was hardly ever with the unit.

You nailed it, Rob. Kudos!

Involved in the theatre industry, Roger?

Yes!
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 12-31-2018
Hint #1: He was not in Our American Cousin, but his career was in acting.
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 12-31-2018
Does he appear in either Tom's "Backstage" or in "JWB Day by Day"?
RE: Assassination Trivia - J. Beckert - 12-31-2018
Joseph Hazelton, who gave very detailed info about Booth's actions on April 14th.
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 12-31-2018
Eva, yes, he is in Backstage, but kudos to Joe. Yes, it is the program boy at Ford's Theatre, Joseph Hazelton. Good job, Joe!

RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 01-03-2019
Today for most of you and yesterday for me and some, there is/was the anniversary of an assassination (aftermath) linked "event".
What was it?
RE: Assassination Trivia - AussieMick - 01-03-2019
Must (?) be something to do with John Surratt?
