Robert Lincoln and the military

[loetar44]

After the fall of Richmond, President Lincoln visited with Tad the fallen city on April 4, returning to City Point on April 5. Mary Todd Lincoln visited the fallen city with Elizabeth Keckley on April 6. But did Robert Lincoln visit the city? As far as I know he did NOT. Or slipped this through the cracks of history, because it was squeezed into those final busy days in April 1865? If Robert did visit the city, just before departing to Washington, it would declare why he was not on Grant’s dispatch boat and arrived a couple of hours later. Thank you Laurie, it was a good thought to suggest that. And thank you Eva, by writing that Robert "wanted to see Richmond fall". Maybe he also "wanted to see Richmond after the fall", just like his father, mother and Tad. Does someone know more?
