Francis Carpenter - ?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-13-2021
I am sorry, gentlemen, but it is not Taylor or Carpenter.
RE: Assassination Trivia - J. Beckert - 06-13-2021
An elderly Mathew Brady?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 06-13-2021
Does he have to do with Mary TL?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-13-2021
Joe, it's not Brady; Eva, the man did not have anything to do (as far as I know) with Mary Lincoln.
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 06-13-2021
I've seen this image before - Mr. Ben Hur AKA Lew Wallace?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-13-2021
Kudos, Eva! Indeed it is Lew Wallace. Wallace led a very active life which included serving on the military commission in 1865 after Lincoln's assassination.
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-17-2021
Who is this?

RE: Assassination Trivia - Gene C - 06-17-2021
A young Finis Bates ?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-17-2021
Nope, it's not Bates.
RE: Assassination Trivia - J. Beckert - 06-17-2021
Harry Hawk?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-17-2021
Kudos, Joe. Yes, it's Harry Hawk. Hawk was the actor on stage at Ford's when John Wilkes Booth shot the President.
RE: Assassination Trivia - J. Beckert - 06-17-2021
Did I win anything?
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 06-18-2021
Yes - you win a lifetime subscription to the The Newark Evening News newspaper.

When John Wilkes Booth shot his father at Ford's Theatre, Tad was at Grover's Theatre watching "Aladdin or The Wonderful Lamp." He was accompanied by Alphonso Donn, one of the group of Metropolitan Washington police officers assigned to the White House.
Also in the audience at Grover's was a person whose name became a part of the Lincoln assassination saga. Who was this?
