Just to show that ADD doesn't mean you can't succeed in life, here's a list of famous people who overcame their ADD to reach their dreams:

Albert Einstein - scientist
Wright Brothers - aviators
Leonardo da Vinci - scientist/artist
Tom Cruise - actor
Charles Schwab - business mogul
Michael Jackson - singer/songwriter
John Lennon - singer/songwriter
Prince Charles - prince

some of my friends who have ADHD are really good at producing music and dj'ing

i am learning to mix music at the moment and i hope to produce some good tunes..

:D

It is pretty much pointless to go so far as to speculate someone long dead had such a condition.
