John Wilkes Booth

Sic Semper Tyrannis.

He escaped through Maryland and accross the Potomac river to Garrett's farm south of Port Royal. He was surrounded there and refused to surrender. He was shot in the neck by Sergeant Boston Corbett and died on the farmhouse porch in the early morning hours of 26 April 1865 at the age of 26.

No he just so happened to hate Lincoln just like the confederits!

Dr. Charles Leale.

No. Had he been in the play he wouldn't have been able to shoot,him.

He jumped from the box Lincoln was sitting in and fell to the stage where he broke his leg. He ran out of the corridor leading to the back door and tried to stab a man while he was leaving. He then jumped on his waiting horse and left Washington DC. He first tried to find help from people who he thought would be glad he shot Lincoln and he ended up at a Dr. Roger Mudd's house who fixed his leg. He then went to a friend's farm in VA and asked for refuge. They allowed him to stay in the barn, but he later was tracked down. The barn was set on fire and he was shot by a Federal Soldier. He died once he was shot. His body was thrown into a wagon and taken to a Union army depot. People started coming to collect items from his body so the army buried him in the floor of the depot. It was dug up several times to determine if it is really Booth and his family finally got him reburied. The people who were in on the plot to kill Lincoln with Booth were hung.

although bothe carried out the assination of lincoln, there is no proof thateither he, or any of his co conspirators were members of the K.G.C.

John Wilkes Booth was not assassinated by a doctor. During his escape, he was cornered in a tobacco barn in Virginia. Although orders were given not to shoot Booth, an overzealous cavalry sergeant by the name of Boston Corbett shot Booth from outside the barn. Booth was removed, lingered for a time, but then succumbed.

John Wikes Booth's body is buried in the family plot in Green Mount Cemetery in Baltimore. (on Saturday, June 26, 1869.) John's individual grave is unmarked at request of the Booth family. It remains that way today.

No. He died on th porch of the Garrett farmhouse.

John Wilkes Booth was a well educated, wealthy and sophisticated Southern Democrat.

Abraham Lincoln was a poorly educated but well read backwoods lawyer and a Republican politician.

He had hoped to extend the war and give the Confederacy a chance to win.

The South did nothing- since the Civil War had already ended, the Confederacy no longer existed. Booth was tracked to a farm on the grounds of what is now Ft. A.P. Hill in Virginia, and he was shot by a Union soldier.

As an actor, he spent most of his time on the road in major American cities, but could most often be found in Baltimore, Maryland or Washington, DC during the off season.

south that's why he killed Abraham was a northern

John Wilkes Booth was born on May 10, 1838 and died on April 26, 1865. John Wilkes Booth would have been 26 years old at the time of death or 177 years old today.

He did! I believe he got away with the crime and went on to live a long life (a minority opinion). The plot to kidnap Lincoln on the 14th fell apart that afternoon. At about 5pm, Booth was talked into killing Lincoln.

Booth did not die at the Garrett farm and Booth's life long friend, John Stevenson, tells what happened.

People were ready and in place to help with the kidnapping of Lincoln. Booth had planned that Captain Scott and his ship would take Lincoln away. Now, Booth intended to use that ship for his escape.

After killing Lincoln and crossing the Navy Yard Bridge, he galloped toward the ship. His horse tripped and fell in the darkness of night. Booth's horse rolled over on its side with Booth in the saddle. He broke his leg and hurt his back. His plans changed. Booth decided to get treatment for his leg and back. He headed to Dr. Mudd's farm. Dr. Mudd was part of the 'doctors line' helping escaped, hurt, and wounded Confederate soldiers get back to the south.

After leaving Dr. Mudd's farm, Booth headed for his farm that was about fifty miles away in the Shenandoah Valley. There Booth's wife would care for him. This was not his plan at the beginning because it could be putting Izola in jeopardy as a co-conspirator in Lincoln's assassination.

John Wilkes Booth was from the state of Maryland. He assassinated President Abraham Lincoln in 1865. John Wilkes Booth was killed in 1865.

He was not named after an actor. He was named after John Wilkes, a famous British revolutionary.

They were Southern Confederates, and the South was at war with the North, and by April 1865, the Union had defeated the South and reuniting the South with the North by force. They wanted to kill the President of the Union, Abraham Lincoln. It was the only way they felt they could strike back at the North.

John Wilkes Booth was known to have a few different pets growing up. He is said to have had dogs, cats, and some farm animals.

Historians are still debating this today. In my opinion as a historian, I believe that the ease of Reconstruction that President Johnson began before Radical Reconstruction would have happened under Lincoln. I also believe that he would have not pardoned top-ranking officials, but also would not have prosecuted them. Jefferson Davis certainly would not have lived in a prison for two-plus years. The Radical Republicans rose to power claiming two parts: 1) to avenge the losses of Union men on the battlefield, and 2) avenge the loss of Abraham Lincoln. If Lincoln had not been assassinated, there is reason to believe that he would have been able to control the Congress better than Johnson did.

There is also debate as to if Lincoln would have survived his second term in any case. There is a large contingent of people who believe that Lincoln suffered from Marfan Syndrome. This elongates the bones, especially in the arms and legs. It affects the heart, lungs, and central nervous system. There are also theories that he suffered from other genetic problems similar to Marfan.

The simple answer is, unfortunately, that we will never know for certain.
