Near the Tent Girl is the grave where another unidentified body rests. In it, during the spring of 1921, was buried the body of a young man found dead outside Georgetown, Kentucky.
Townspeople joined to buy a grave marker which reads, - Some Mother's Son -
His body was found on April 1st, 1921 and was buried on April 14th, 1921.
More than 80 years have passed since this boy was found. The most likely clues to his identity lie with the science of genealogy.
I have visited his grave now for almost 20 years. His stone so covered with moss that a clear image of the epitaph is impossible. I recently took and image of the grave, printed it out and touched up the lettering with a lead pencil so that it can be read.
Like the Tent Girl, my main reference to him was the 1969 issue of Master Detective. The article lead me right to his final resting place, the only evidence that he ever existed.
