Biographical History

Charles Weisberg, nicknamed “The Baron,” was active as a forger from the 1930s until his death in 1945, at Pennsylvania’s Lewisburg Prison. Although he is remembered as one of the greatest forgers of Abraham Lincoln documents, Weisberg also forged George Washington letters and surveys of Mount Vernon.
