Yo I just watched two speeches you gave about Booth and his conspirators. Thank you. You are a tremendous speaker and gave great answers to all the questions asked. I appreciate your knowledge and passion and hope to one day be as knowledgeable as you about a specific history subject. Keep up the great work!
Beautiful informative video! 2023 is the same dates as 1865 Easter was April 16th that year in 1865 . I would love to visit the whole area someday and stay at an old inn in Baltimore 💕
people think john wilkes booth is near the sidewalk even if they know the foot stone is not his marker they still think he is near the sidewalk he is on the opposite side of the family marker away from the sidewalk thanks for pointing this out there is a book called '' booth '' very different book sort of soap opera style yet very good he was buried here in june 22 of 1869 after being under floor boards and in a horse blanket in a box then on a shelf in a building owned by the army then in a beautiful jeweled dark casket box do to the amount of his deterioration but intact pretty well '' right or wrong god judge me '' is an interesting book so is the book by '' asia booth they had a very close relationship he was known for his teeth interesting too bad no one smiled in pictures back then
Can you imagine a time when no one smiled in photos , it's annoying actually since smiling is a form of communication . I saw a History Channel documentary about Booth , people would be mesmerized by Booth, his dark hair and eyes . He would captivate the audience by his '' stark beauty '' as an article said online. Ladies would hang out around his dressing room and he had many lady friends many just friends. His best friends were women , men not so much .
@@200991602 i miss the old youtube channels when we had friend lists and discussions there was a young man from south carolina he knew more about booth and had been here since 2007 i lost track of yiutubers this is sad i no longer can find anyone we came on 2008/09 when we were in north hollywood
Thank you so much for this video. I was working in Gettysburg as a travel nurse from NY. I got COVID and many after effects and was not able to see this as I have always wanted to. Fantastic video!
UHHHHH an ASSASSIN IS INSPIRATIONAL ????? YOU ARE A DECENDANT OF A SLAVE OWNING FAMILY I GUESS ... kkk AND JIM CROW ARE INSPIRATIONAL ?????????? BOY ARE YOU A SICK FUK
This was especially interesting since I've been reading Karen Joy Fowler's novel "Booth" which is about the family. All of the people mentioned here are featured in the novel.
Hi Dave, I stumbled across this and watched it and thank you for giving the correct info correctly. I constantly comment about Asia's foot stone, but all those "experts" on Quora just feel we are lying. Everyone else has a foot stone except little Edwin, so why would Asia not have a foot stone? This is the first time I have really heard any true about this plot. Thanks
Hi, I've just discovered your channel and wanted to thank you. I am curious about how easy it would have been for civilian people to travel while the war was being fought. I understand that Booth travelled frequently as an actor. Could he easily move between Confederate and Union States? What kind of border regulation would have been in place, it seems the war was quite fluid in some theatres, which would have made border control difficult? Cheers from Canada.
Yes, both Edwin and Wilkes were able to travel and cross over and we're not necessarily under the traditional borders. Wilkes was able to take advantage of this and with a small group, smuggled medical supplies into the South.
Travel was very restricted between the North and the South during the Civil War. Despite JWB claiming to his sister that he was involved in some smuggling activities, there is no proof he travelled into the Confederacy during the war. Supporting this is the fact that he went up to Canada in order to try and make contact with Confederate operatives for support of his abduction plot against Lincoln. I don't believe he traveled into the Confederacy until his escape after the assassination. His only trip to the South after the Civil War began was to New Orleans which was a union occupied city and he had to take a long boat ride in order to get there from the north.
Ye,when you see nice cemeteries like this you wonder if be more at home there,,ye,so peaceful birds singing people strolling by,,,very tempting is it not???ye,no more oppression mental torture and course corruption, I rest, jcvw
Many Northerners resented Lincoln and felt dragged into a war they didn't want , my family included , we were from Ohio same as General / President Grant. Booth thought of Lincoln as a tyrant , that doesn't mean someone should be killed but Lincoln had many enemies South and North, many resentments on both sides. What Sherman did to Atlanta was a war crime, also Sherman had many Native Americans killed . From my family they were not in favor of Lincoln , they didn't like his policies .
Junius Sr was very famous as he was having his boys come up, Wilkes was a matinee idol until the assassination, Junius Jr turned more to Theature management, Asia wrote 3 books about this family, still called the First Family of the American Theature, etc.etc.etc.
Great video! Thanks for clearing up the mystery of JWB's actual burial location.
Actually that mystery still remains.
Huh
Your booth documentary had to be the best I ever heard. You tell stories very well
Grew up right across the street and never went inside until today 30 years later 😬

Thanks, Dave!! This was awesome!! Makes you feel more connected to the Booth family. I appreciate the tour :)
This guy is such a inspiration. I'm so passionate about this stuff to

I just watched a video where the person said the foot stone was JWB'S grave. Thanks for clearing that up.

Well, as a ,Booth, doubley related, remember a novel is a take on some history that is out there, but just another persons' take on a few facts.
Just watched my second video of Dave’s. I can’t wait to watch more. Thanks Dave!!
Thanks for sharing. Just got to your Tudor Hall today
Born and raised in Baltimore, be very careful , you are in a dangerous part of town bud
Yeah as a lifelong resident I can attest that's The Hood now sadly
I’m a Baltimorean, too! I’ve never heard of any problems in the cemetery.
John Wilkes is there somewhere…but as discussed, it’s not the foot stone as many have thought.
It needed to be a big mausoleum of its own for JWB!!!!!!
@@paulwojnilowicz5265so we can piss on it
Great Dave. Thanks for sharing!
Great job as usual, Dave! 👍
Great Video
I love history!

@@LincolnConspirators this is fascinating thanks for sharing. Being Canadian I'm always fascinated by Canada's clandestine participation in the war.
Fantastic 😊Thks!
John Wilks doesn't have a marker?
His name is on the family marker. 🙂
Wonder if the caskets had any integrity upon being exhumed for relocation after being in the ground so many years.
Thank you for this very interesting video.
Almost whole family 😢😢
Thank U Very Interesting
Excellent
Very informativbe, thanks.
Question: It is documented that Edwin Booth retrieved his brother John's body and buried him in the family plot. Where then would the grave be?
Watch the end of the video.
Hey Dave,
Do you have an email I can contact you? I live close to DC and am planning a whole Lincoln tour. Big fan of yours, and hope to hear back.
Ye,when you see nice cemeteries like this you wonder if be more at home there,,ye,so peaceful birds singing people strolling by,,,very tempting is it not???ye,no more oppression mental torture and course corruption, I rest, jcvw
Enjoyed very much
So…. So did you move the pennies 😂
Where is his tombstone?JWB?
I dnt know much about history of the US. But why booth killed Lincon ? Lincon was good or bad?
Because Lincoln freed the slaves and booth was a Confederate from the south army they was against it that's why Lincoln was assassinated

I hate what that guy did Lincoln was so much better of a human.
I subscribe thumbs up
All these Booth family members but only one Booth is famous.
Junius Sr was very famous as he was having his boys come up, Wilkes was a matinee idol until the assassination, Junius Jr turned more to Theature management, Asia wrote 3 books about this family, still called the First Family of the American Theature, etc.etc.etc.
Edwin was the most famous actor of his era.
no stone for JWB ?
His brother Edwin wanted it left unmarked.
rip john
My last name was this
No grave of J. W. B.
No disrespect but John wilks booth is buried in Guntown Mississippi
😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂
You need to clean that obulesk! 😆
Imagine if that cemetery was destroyed and a shopping center or school was built over all those graves🤔
Where is Booth’s grave though?
