Mystery Still After 90 Years

Catherine Winters It has been 90 years since Catherine Winters disappeared, about noon on a sunny spring day in the middle of New Castle. People still are wondering how the bright 9-year-old daughter of prominent dentist W. A. Winters could have vanished, as one private detective said, "as if the earth had opened and swallowed her up." Catherine, and her 7-year-old brother, Frankie, were out of school on March 20, 1913 because of a measles outbreak. The girl left home, 311 N. 16th St., about 9 a.m. that day to sell packages of noodles for a charity - and get some spending money for herself - and play with some friends.

Introduction

Hello, I am Amber. I am making this blog to discuss particular cases of missing people. Many of these people have disappeared under strange or unusual circumstances, and in many cases the police either refused to take them seriously, or by the time they realized they were in fact missing valuable time and evidence had been lost. Witnesses were gone. My hope is to bring awareness to these cases and hopefully someone out there knows something or heard or saw something that can bring the families of the missing some kind of closure. I will also look at cases of mass disapearances, such as the hundreds that go missing in our national parks every year.
