  1. Yes, unfortunately he was dead.


  2. Yes.  A delivery man found the body in a grove of trees.  Although badly decomposed, the body was identified as that of the missing Lindberg baby by Lindberg and I believe the governess.  They were able to tell by the crossed over toes on the right foot and the shirt on the body was one that Gow had made for the child.  This was 75 years ago and yet it still makes me feel such sadness.

  3. On May 12, 1932, delivery-truck driver William Allen pulled his truck to the side of a road about 4.5 miles from the Lindbergh home. He went to a grove of trees to urinate, and there he discovered the corpse of a toddler. Allen notified police, who took the body to a morgue in nearby Trenton, New Jersey. The body was badly decomposed. The skull was badly fractured, the left leg and both hands were missing; and it was impossible to determine if the body was a boy or a girl. Lindbergh and Gow quickly identified the baby as the missing infant, based on the overlapping toes of the right foot, and the shirt that Gow had made for the baby. They surmised that the child had been killed by a blow to the head.

  4. yup, it was found but unfortunately, it was dead and slightly decomposed, have some animal bitemarks on its hands and feet. too bad for the senior...
