With the "Hollywood Hype" over the new movie "The Conspirator" - Surratt Boardinghouse produced by: Robert Redford & James McAvoy which they say is based on actual "Facts" they are displaying Mrs. Mary E. (Jenkins) SURRATT, as a young, and defenseless woman, who was railroaded to the hanging gallows. This may help sell the movie, but they are omitting several facts.  Mrs. Mary E. (Jenkins) SURRATT, was 42yrs old in 1865. She had lost her husband three years earler in 1862 when   Squire John Harrison SURRATT, Sr., left her in financial ruins.  Squire John H., was born "Out-of-Wedlock" to 21 year old Sarah TALBERT, (b. c1792, MD.) No "Bond on a Bastardy Charge" were ever found, but researchers beleive it had to be one of the 8 sons of Francis & Mary (Harrison) SURRATT, who was the only SURRATT's in the neighborhood. Sarah TALBERT, married the 22 year her senior, Richard NEAL, Esq. of Hydes District, Prince George's Co., MD.  In the absence of absolute proof, circumstantial evidence, both legally and genealogically, has been allowed in the following conclusion that Squire John Harrison SURRATT, Sr. was the Grandson of Alphonsus "Francis" and Mary (Harrison) SARRATT, and a Son of Unknown SURRATT and will be conceded when any other proof of the opposite is provided, which is both logical and reasonable and not opposed by any other evidence...Paul R.

John Harrison SURRATT, age 26yrs 10 years her senior, was a colorless, thin man with questionable background. No one knew who his parents were. He had been raised by Richard and Sarah NEALE. Sarah was much younger than her husband, a wealthy man who owned an extensive farm known as "Pasture and Gleaning." It was located in Washington County, Washington, D.C.

But there was a fourth. In looking at the baptismal records at St. Peter's Church, one finds the following entry: "...... July 7, 1840 Mass Baptism John William Harrison, son of Caroline "SARATH", born 13th of June 1838. Sponsor: Catherine McNamee. Van Horslaigh." It is doubtful that John H. Surratt, Sr. brought this child to be baptized. The mother, who gave the name Caroline SARATH, must have done it--accompanied by a neighbor, Catherine McNAMMEE, as a sponsor.   The explanation for this baptism can be found in the District of Columbia records. On November 18, 1840, some four months after he married Miss Mary E. JENKINS, Caroline Sanderson had John H. Surratt, Sr. put under "Bond on a Bastardy Charge. He was to pay the maintenance of an illegitimate male child. The Sandersons were neighbors out on Oxon Run. What the recently married Mrs. Mary E. (Jenkins) Surratt thought about this is not on record, but she must have known about it.  Some three months later (After Marriage License Issued) on 28 Nov. 1840, Miss CAROLINE SANDERSON filed with the Court of Prince George's Co., a Bastardy Bond for support of her "Out of Wedlock" son claiming that John Harrison SURRATT, Sr. was the father. per <---[REF:#1 pg14]  Marriage License - Aug 6th, 1840  Surratt House Museum <---[REF:#10 & 11] Writes:       John H. SURRATT, Sr. on August 6, 1840, and M. Elizabeth JENKINS took out a license to be married in the District of Columbia, he was 27, she just 17y We do not know where the marriage ceremony was performed. It appears that they were married at St. Peter's Catholic Church near the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.. This assumption is based on several other assumptions, since the marriage records for that period at St. Peter's are   missing!       As a matter of geography, St. Peter's would have been the most likely Washington church for the couple to go to for the ceremony. John H. Surratt, Sr. lived with the NEALES, just across the Eastern Branch of the Potomac (now known as the Anacostia River) in what was then known as Washington County, DC. Young Mary E. JENKINS lived with her widowed mother about five miles farther down, across the District line in Prince George's County. <--- [1980-REF:#1 pg12] 1981 Source on this Marriage writes:   On 06 Aug. 1840, John Harrison SURRATT, age 27 and Mary E.

John Surratt was not Catholic. A church wedding would have been impossible. On August 6, 1840, John Surratt and Mary Jenkins obtained a marriage license in Washington, D.C. John & Mary were probably married the last of August or the first part of September. It is not known if Joseph Goodyear and Eleatha Meade were married at the same time. It appears, however, that John and Mary were married at the Boiseau home on Good Hope Road, in Prince George's County. John Surratt took his bride down the Livingston Road to Qxon Run. There they forded the willow-shaded stream, turned left, and passed the gristmill that belonged to John Surratt. Beyond, on a small rise, stood the miller's frame house. Here is where the young couple lived while John operated his mill.  Squire John H.

So it was with the birth of only daughter Anna SURRATT and the death of Richard Neale (John's stepfather). After Anna's birth in January 1843, Richard Neale died that same year in September. He was buried at St. John's Church, Broad Creek. Apparently, Neale died quietly without the medical services of Dr. Bayne. The death of the elderly man probably affected John H. SURRATT deeply. Richard Neale had been the only father that John had ever known. Now, at the age of thirty, John was a father of two children, responsible for Mrs. Neale, and the master of a sizeable farm. This was a lot of responsibility for one just out of his twenties. Deed, additional 119 acres for "Foxal" Plantation, Oct. 1843   Even though John H. SURRATT had not paid Dr. Bayne for his visits or the medicines for the family, the doctor loaned John $450 on October 25, 1843.[16] The day before, John had entered into an arrangement to pay William and Henrietta Kerby of Prince George's County $800 for 119 additional acres of the "Foxhall" land.[17] John repaid Dr. Bayne the loan in December 1847.[18] [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg22] DC Land Records, Washington National Records Center, Suitland, MD (Appendix A).

According to Dr. Bayne's ledger, on the night of April 10 he made a night visit to the Surratts. There, he claimed to have paid "particular attention to Mrs. Surratt." His charge was ten dollars. John H. Surratt, Jr., would always claim April 13 as his birth date. According to the doctor's ledger, he had visited Mrs. Surratt on April 13, at which time he gave her six anodyne pills. Anodyne was used for pain or sleep or both. The doctor charged two dollars. This would indicate that John Jr. was born on April 10, since the charge was more for that visit than the visit on April 13. No date of birth is indicated on John Surratt, Jr.'s, baptismal record. [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg22] "Pasture and Gleaning" Interest, May 27 1845   A deed recorded 27 May 1845, shows the widow SARAH (TALBERT) NEALE, age 53 relinquished her interest in "Pasture and Gleaning" to John HARRISON SURRATT, Sr., age 32 and she gave a Slave to each of his children. [1980-REF:#1 pg13] In October 1843, Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT was well aware that she was expecting another child. No doubt, she had the services of Patty, one of the Neale servants. She was legally given to the Surratts on May 6, 1845, when Mrs. Neale conveyed her title and interest to the tract of land known as "Pasture and Gleaning." [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg22] DC Land Records WB 116:340-341, D.C. Recorder of Deeds Office, Washington, DC (Appendix A). The year 1845 did not bring any better health to Mrs. Neale. If anything, Dr. Bayne's visits became more frequent. By May, the fifty-three-year-old lady must have felt that she didn't have long to live. On May 27, she relinquished her remaining interested in "Pasture and Gleaning" to John Surratt. [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg22] [1980-REF:#1 pg13] Laura and Norman H. Sarratt, op. cit., p. 13. Mrs. Sarah (Talbert) NEALE, dies Jun 27, 1845   It has been reported by JAMES O. HALL, [1980-REF:#1 pg13] That on 27 Jun. 1845 A Catholic Priest Father C. H. STONESTREET, was called to the SURRATT'S home in Prince George's Co., MD. to baptize the ailing Mrs. SARAH (TALBERT) NEALE, age 53 and the Father said later: "Mrs. Sarah NEALE was Mrs. Mary (JENKINS) SURRATT'S mother- in- law." Mrs. SARAH (TALBERT) NEALE, probably died soon after that, but whether she was truly John Harrison SARRATT, Sr. mother can not be ascertained." With the decline of Mrs. Neale's health, Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT probably took on more of the domestic responsibilities. In addition to that, she had the care of her three young children and an elderly woman in need of near constant attention. James and Sara Barrett, their baby William, and William Chinn, a miller, probably Sara's brother, took over the operation of the mill. John H. SURRATT, Sr. was finally able to become a full-time planter. With the appearance of the miller and his family, the Surratts logically vacated their home at the mill and moved to the larger home at "Pasture and Gleaning." Apparently, Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT was able to convince Mrs. Neale that she should become a Catholic. On June 27, 1845, Fr. Charles Stonestreet came from Alexandria and baptized Sarah Neale, daughter of Thomas Talbot and Hester Soper. The priest made a notation on the record of baptism that, since Mrs. Neale had been an Episcopalian, her baptism was only conditional. He indicated that Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT was the sponsor.[25] Toward the last of July, Dr. Bayne began to visit Mrs. Neale more often. She required frequent tapping to relieve the congestion in her lungs.[26] The physician's last visit to the ailing woman was on August 6, 1845.[27] The death of John H. SURRATT's stepmother, no doubt, was a terrible shock. The only family that he had ever had was gone. Now, the future was in his hands. [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg23] 25.

Fire Destroyed "Pasture and Gleaning" 1851   The Surratt family was faced with another worry that made the tariff problem seem minuscule by comparison. It was approximately 1851 when fire destroyed the home at "Pasture and Gleaning." Generally it is believed that a disgruntled slave was responsible.[4] Since he was never apprehended, perhaps the suspect fell into the hands of Nat Butler. Nat was a enterprising free-black Marylander who sold fugitive Negroes to Southern traders.[5.] After the fire, Mary Surratt and her three children moved in with Cousin Thomas Jenkins, his wife Charity, and their six children.[6] As previously mentioned, Thomas Jenkins and Ann Jenkins Smoot were Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT's cousins. [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg35] [4.] The year of the fire is gained from oral history. Note 4A: In a letter that Mrs. Surratt wrote to Father Finotti on 13 May 1855, she mentioned a "keepsake" that "got burnt up the night of the fire." She requested another. He obliging sent her a book of devotions. The author believes that the original keepsake was a gift of appreciation that the priest had presented to all the parishioners who had helped to make St. Ignatius Catholic Church possible.

She identified herself as being the daughter of Thomas Jenkins. She mentioned that Mary Surratt and her children had stayed with her family after the fire.   Possible Record Problem!  Whose "Oral History" was this info. taken from? Why the Nat Butler comment? If the fire was in 1851, why did Mrs. SURRATT, wait 4 years to request a new "keepsake"? TRINDAL, is using a lot of "assumptions" here..prs Railroad Work, Jan 01, 1852   But John Surratt did not rebuild the home at "Pasture and Gleaning." Like his Uncle Samuel Surratt, John decided to become a "Tavern Keeper". Being land poor, he needed money in order to enter into his new enterprise. John Surratt and a friend, David Barry, formed a contracting company to work on the extension of the Orange and Alexandria Railroad.[7] Research indicates that they were active in building the middle section of the railroad to Culpeper Courthouse, Virginia, from Alexandria. This section was scheduled for completion by January 1, 1852.[8] [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg35] [7.] Minute Book, 1846-1852, Fairfax County Court, p. 353, dated 18 August 1857.  Note 7A: The Minute Book shows garnishment action against the partnership of John H. Surratt and David Barry for $111.82. (James 0. Hall research.) By the author's calculations, John H. Surratt would have been active in this partnership in the summer of 1851 and possibly until April 1852 when the tavern-house was completed.

Wife Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT, has affair with her Priest? "For Mrs. Mary (Jenkins) SURRATT, the year 1851 proved to be the beginning other road to ruin. Until the home-tavern combination was built, she and the children were completely dependant on the kindness of Thomas Jenkins and his family. To Mary, the future must have looked bleak. The thought of her children being raised in an atmosphere of hard-drinking and hard-living men must have tormented her. She needed all the moral support and spiritual wisdom that she could find. Consequently, she turned to her priest. The Reverend Finotti was celebrated for his piety and his concern for the young.[9] It would be only natural that his concern for the young would extend to Mary's children. It became a historic fact that the handsome priest saw enough of Mrs. Surratt to provoke a few raised eyebrows.[10]" [Source: From [1996-REF:#19 pg36] [9.] Woodstock Collection, Vol. 14, p. 249.

"...that while her (Mrs. Surratt) husband was yet living an Italian priest who ministered in that part of the country got in such a flirtation with Mrs. Surratt that it raised a commotion that he had to be sent to Boston to get him out of the scandal..." When John Harrison SURRATT, Sr., was 39 years of age, in 1852, he bought 287 acres, located what now is Clinton, in Prince George's County, MD. He erected a house and also built a Tavern. It was an ideal location for a Tavern since it was on the junction of the Marlboro-Piscataway Road and Brandywine Roads (Routes 223 & 381 today). His old home and Tavern stands today and has been restored by the Surratt House Museum (SHM) and the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planing Commission.

[REF:#1 pg13] Unfortunately John Harrison SURRATT, Sr. business dealings were so confused and he was so much in debt that his creditors pressed him into clearing up debts, and through a complicated deal, in 1856 he turned over his property, "Pasture and Gleaning" to AUGUSTUS GIBSON and received enough money to clear off debts. In this deal he also obtained title to the house in Washington, D.C. [The "Bording House"] located at 541 H Street. Today the house stands at 604 H Street NW.

[Source: per "The Confederate Courier", 1964 [REF:#2] Testimony before the Military Tribunal (13th May, 1865) Mary Jenkins was born in in Waterloo, Maryland, in May, 1823. Educated at a Catholic female seminary in Alexandria, Virginia, she married John Harrison Surratt when she was seventeen. The couple went to live on land that he had inherited just outside of Washington at Oxon Hill. In 1851 a fire destroyed their home the couple decided to rebuild a combined home and tavern. In 1853 Surratt purchased 287 acres of farmland in Prince George's County. He built a tavern and post office and the community eventually became known as Surrattsville. Surratt worked as the local postmaster until his death on 25th August, 1862. In October, 1864, Mrs. Surratt decided to rent the Surrattsville property for $500 a year to an ex-policeman, John M. Lloyd, and moved to a house she owned at 541 High Street, Washington. To make some extra money she rented out some of her rooms. During the American Civil War, her eldest son, John Harrison Surratt,* joined the Confederate Army. Her other son, John Surratt, worked as an agent for the Confederacy. He met others working as secret agents including John Wilkes Booth who stayed at the Surratt's boardinghouse when he was in the area. It is not known if Mrs. Surratt knew if these men were working for the Confederacy.

(Jenkins) SURRATT, Arrest & Trial  On the 17th April, 1865 police officers arrived at Mrs. Surratt's boardinghouse. Lewis Powell was also at the house and the two of them were arrested and charged with conspiring to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln. When the police searched the house they found a hidden photograph of John Wilkes Booth, the man who had assassinated Lincoln at Ford's Theatre on 14th April.      Louis Weichmann, one of Mrs. Surratt's borders, and John M. Lloyd, the man who rented the tavern at Surrattsville, were also arrested and threatened with being charged with the murder of Abraham Lincoln. Kept in solitary confinement both men eventually agreed to give evidence against Mrs. Surratt in return for their freedom.      On 1st May, 1865, President Andrew Johnson ordered the formation of a nine-man military commission to try the conspirators. It was argued by Edwin M. Stanton, the Secretary of War, that the men should be tried by a military court as Lincoln had been Commander in Chief of the army. Several members of the cabinet, including Gideon Welles (Secretary of the Navy), Edward Bates (Attorney General), Orville H. Browning (Secretary of the Interior), and Henry McCulloch (Secretary of the Treasury), disapproved, preferring a civil trial. However, James Speed, the Attorney General, agreed with Stanton and therefore the defendants did not enjoy the advantages of a jury trial.      The trial began on 10th May, 1865. The military commission included leading generals such as David Hunter, Lewis Wallace, Thomas Harris and Alvin Howe and Joseph Holt was the government's chief prosecutor. Mary Surratt, Lewis Powell, George Atzerodt, David Herold, Samuel Mudd, Michael O'Laughlin, Edman Spangler and Samuel Arnold were all charged with conspiring to murder Lincoln. During the trial Holt attempted to persuade the military commission that Jefferson Davis and the Confederate government had been involved in conspiracy.      On 29th June, 1865, Mrs. Mary Surratt, Lewis Powell, George Atzerodt, David Herold, Samuel Mudd, Michael O'Laughlin, Edman Spangler and Samuel Arnold were found guilty of being involved in the conspiracy to murder Lincoln. Surratt, Powell, Atzerodt and Herold were all sentenced to be hanged at Washington Penitentiary on 7th July, 1865.      Five out of the nine members of the Military Commission, recommended that Mrs. Surratt be shown mercy "due to her sex and age". President Andrew Johnson was later to say he was never told this and he gave the order to hang the woman who he pointed out "kept the nest that hatched the egg".      On 7th July, 1865, Mary Surratt, still pleading her innocence, became the first woman in American history to be executed by the federal government. <--- See: Chapter 12 for SFA© The LINCOLN Conspirators & Assassination - 1865   Mrs. Mary E.

The building was erected about 1800 as a tavern and boarding house. It remained as such until the British burned the U.S. Capitol building in 1814, during the War of 1812. On 8 December 1815 the U.S. Congress leased this building for their use. In 1817 President James Monroe was inaugurated on a platform outside the 'Brick Capitol', as this building became known. By 1825 the new U.S. Capitol building was built and this temporary structure became, among other things, a boarding house, a school, and a hotel at times. It also became known as the 'Old Capitol'.  All of the bodies were stripped naked (the clothes were given to charity), wrapped in sheets, and placed in simple pine coffins with a glass vial containing their names to help identify the bodies. They were all then buried in shallow graves next to the prison walls. Several pieces of the rope that had ended Mary E. (Jenkins) SURRATT's life and locks of her hair were sold as souvenirs. Four years later Dau Anna (Surratt) TONRY made a successful plea to the government for her mother's remains. Today, Mary E. (Jenkins) SURRATT is buried in Mount Olivet Cemetery in Washington, D.C., 1300 Bladensburg Road, NE. Her headstone reads simply "Mrs. SURRATT."

Isaac Douglas SURRATT In 1996, Elizabeth Steger Trindal writes:        Around the fall of 1862, Isaac SURRATT sent a letter to his mother. He was serving the confederacy in Matamoros, Mexico. On May 04, 1862, Isaac enlisted as a Private in Company A. 33rd Regiment, 14th Battalion, Texas Calvary, Captain James DUFF's Partisan Rangers in San Antonio, TX. He was promoted to Sergeant on Mar. 01, 1863. The 33rd TX. Reg. served primarily on the lower Rio Grande. Several companies of the Regiment fought in the last battle of the Civil War, at Palmito Ranch on 13, 1865. He was paroled from the Confederate service at San Antonio, Tx on Sept. 18, 1865. According to some accounts, he joined members of his company who fought for the Emperor Maximillian in Mexico. The company disbanded when the emperor insisted on selecting the officers for the American unit. According to his obituary, he and the other men went to Europe. Also according to the obit., he did not learn of his Mother's death until he returned to the U.S.!! Another, more believable version states that Isaac didn't go to Europe like his brother John. Instead on Oct 18, 1865, Gen. Philip H. Sheridan telegraphed Secretary of War Edwim M. Stanton with a physical description of Issac. On Oct. 19, 1865 Gen. Lafayette Baker, Chief of the U.S. Secret Service, wired Maj. Thomas T. Eckert, aid to Sec. Stanton, that Issac had been arrested in Baltimore, MD. [*] He and his brother John were both employed by the "Old Bay Line" a Baltimore steam packet company. Again, according to his obit, he had been educated as an "Engineer". He never Married. In later years he lived with his sister, Anna and her family. Isaac died at the age of 66yrs on Nov. 03, 1907. He is buried in the Surratt Family Plot at Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Washington, DC. per <--- [1996-REF:#19, Pg231,2]  Source: Isaac D.
