After killing Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth fled Washington to his farm in the Shenandoah Valley where his wife Izola nursed him back to health. After Booth's leg healed he moved around place to place. In 1883, he found his way to India where he wrote a will to free up the money held in a US bank that was inaccessible to him. That money was deposited under Booth's stage name John Wilkes. After writing the will, he faked John Wilkes' death.
After a long investigation by ex-president Ulises S. Grant, ex-General Lou Wallace and an ex-secret-service-agent by the name of Andrew Potter, they found the will to be valid and paid the money to Booth's heirs. Booth then found his way to Oklahoma where he died in 1903.

Where can you find information about David E George who claimed to be John Wilkes Booth in 1903?
Answer There is much controversy whether David E George was actually John Wilkes Booth. Autopsy proved that John Booth has a pin in his leg (broken earlier in his life) and also dental records (there are no indications as to where John Wilkes Booth is buried. On the other side of the coin there were just too many similarities and too much David E George knew and many of them believed he was John Wilkes Booth. David E George's body was used in circus' for spectators and the myth would have it that any circus owner that owned the mummified corpse lost everything they owned and those that transported the body had bad luck or even death. Myth or reality?For more information on David E. George and John St. Helen see the last chapter of Lincoln, Davis, and Booth.
