Also, just as an aside for curiosity sake' I read the other day that someone auctioned off the actual piece of property known as Checkpoint Bravo. Also from Berlin. Kinda interesting. When I read the news story, I immediately wondered if our girl once went through there...I can very well...
Great to hear Charlie. Hope you are making progress with the detective?
Just so you know, I am not idle --- I am tackling the task of making an actual painted portrait of this woman. I'm hoping if I do in a more traditional way, and I can upload a photo of it, maybe that might help. At least...
Well, they have identified the owner of the trunk.
JANET M. Barrie who lived in LA, worked as a nurse there, and then moved to Vancouver.
Here's the latest update from yahoo news/ap.

Here's the latest update from the Reno Gazette Journal:

I just want to add a few thoughts on the eastern european angle:
IF she was eastern european, another likely choice for country of origin would be : East Germany and even more specifically, East Berlin (aside from the former Yugoslavia, already mentioned way back). At that time, it was not...
It is indeed a mystery. I've kept a look out for more updates but I haven't found any. Are you aware of any updates to this story? I was gone for a few weeks.
Your questions are excellent. I guess the first thing they are going to do is figure out if both were fetuses that were aborted, or...
I saw this on the local Reno news yesterday. So sad. I truly believe that after they do the autopsy, the grandson will be indicted.
My heart cries for Peggy, her daughter and her husband. I had heard that no one showed up to help search and I think a lot of that was the local sheriff's...
Whew! A lot going on the few weeks I was gone.....lots to think about.
Charlie, your latest questions are excellent.
I especially like #7. Kinda touching to think she is still "with us" and hoping, through us to "get home".
Regarding earrings - it's hard to tell from the photos (I have them...

Infant skeletons found in Calif. basement trunk

Snipped:
"LOS ANGELES Two infant skeletons wrapped in 1930s newspapers and placed in...
So saddened to hear all this. I can add nothing except my prayers. I am local in Reno and of course this hits close to home. I will go onto the Riverwalk this morning and pick up the remaining fliers. I had been out of town the last few days and did not hear this until I saw it here.
My...
Charlie said the detectives had checked all visa overstays and Interpol and came up with nothing, indicating she may have been here illegally, if she was from Europe.
Here's another far fetched scenario: What if she was Rom? (Gypsy?) There is a Rom presence in Nevada and moreso in Northern...
Aw shucks. :blushing:
You're welcome. I wish it had been more fruitful but hopefully, as carbuf says, maybe someone willl remember something. I took several fliers I had printed out and gave them around even to the younger people.
Hopefully things will die down at work and I will be...
Ya know, on a personal note, I have Complex PTSD, chronic depression and a host of other "issues". On my worst day, the worst I have ever done is yell at my kid for not cleaning her room and for insisting she never lie to me.
I do not understand these people. I do not understand the evil...
Well, I went up to Tahoe and talked to a few of the old timers at Hidden Beach today. I showed them the photo of Carl's reconstruction as well as her post-mortem. All 3 said they were sad but did not remember her and all three were going up there since 1980. Of course that doesn't mean she...
Poor Peggy - I fear the worst for her. Her grandson appears to be a real bad apple --- some investigation into his past is in order. Local reports here, are not getting much response because Peggy was a "shut in" --- she did not get out and about much at all and so many people did not know her...
Ohhhh....that's good thinking!!! I didn't think of that angle.
She could have come from there very easily. But that still wouldn't account for the "German", or "Eastern european" dental work. (Still not sure what to think of that. That's a serious discrepancy)
Let me think about it. I...
