RE: Lincoln at Ford's Theatre

Well, Lincoln Day By Day says the same as what you found - he attended a theater on those dates, but which one is not mentioned. Perhaps the answer is lost to history. From the List of Productions at Ford's Theatre (Aug 1863 to April 1865): Saturday January 2, 1864 --- "Heir at Law" and "John Dobbs"--- leading actor: John E. Owens. Friday December 9, 1864 --- "Fanchon the Cricket" --- leading actress Maggie Mitchell This were the productions in Ford's. Maybe this will help, if we know which play Lincoln attended. Wow! Big kudos to Eva, for her great listing! I'm deeply impressed. Thanks Eva. |
