As for the research of Neff, Guttridge and Arnold, the last article on the link provided might be of some interest. Neff also was involved in the infamous book "The Lincoln Conspiracy by Balsiger and Seller.

The Lincoln Conspiracy is an unfortunate mix of a fair amount of valid information ruined by lots of absurd speculation, distortion, and outright fabrication. How was Neff "involved" with Balsiger and Seller's work? As a consultant? Consultants usually can't control the final product and might not agree with much of what the final product says. It is in the same sad category as Finnis Bates' book The Escape and Suicide of John Wilkes Booth.

Guttridge and Neff's Dark Union is a serious work of solid scholarship based on years of research, and there is no comparison between it and Balsiger and Seller's book or Bates' book.
