Hi, I started out with the idea of a matrix of solutions. I thought possibly 4. But they just kept growing. I ditched some ideas.
I just thought if I researched an idea it would extinguish itself. Many did. I'm certain in the Facebook group there are traces of many of my old ideas that I haven't deleted. They will come back to bite me one day I guess.
In 2018 some in the FB group tried to work together and would chase out through genealogy and research - in public. Now a core of people still research via messaging in smaller groups. I still get sent/find face matches to suspects etc. It is amazing how the Bonn woman was found on FB this month! The image appeared just 1 day after I brought the subject back up in the FB group. Nearly 52 years after the original photo was taken.
One person I have never found a photo of was the missing person Jeannine Fort Varvin. Considering she was missing in August 1970 and that she part-owned a property in Norway but only spoke French, German and English it is curious that no journalist is willing to investigate this. I have asked many.
Also that she doesn't appear in a newspaper photo in a gallery etc - like the two wives that followed.
