Biographical History
Charles Stuart Booth (1804-1862) worked as a night watchman in lower Manhattan from 1828 to 1862. Booth was a resident of the Brooklyn neighborhood of Williamsburgh, which had been a separate city until it was annexed by the City of Brooklyn in 1855. Booth and his wife, Lavinia Lyon Booth, had four children: Horace, Thomas (Tom), Eliza (Lila, 1836-1900), and Phoebe (1830-1912). Horace Booth served in the Civil War from 1861 to 1863 as an engineer in the Union Army's 8th Regiment, and was posted in Annapolis and Washington, D.C. throughout his service. Tom Booth worked in a store in Williamsburgh and was also a night watchman in the early 1860s, a position he found through the help of his father. Phoebe Booth married Hiram K. Lockwood (1820-1870) in 1851, and her sister Lila married Samuel S. Carrington in 1857.
