There wasn’t much detail in the article about where they found her. On Tuesday around 300 residents arrive to search, and at 10am, a guy named Burt Polland (I do not know if that is spelled right) found her, somewhere between 2 and 3 miles from where her parents last saw her. Paulides said in the Missing 411 cases, the searchers never get a response, which is strange if people are lost, cold, or hungry. Paulides said when searchers are looking for someone, they call the person’s name, say that they are their friend and that they’re there to help. They searched for an hour, and they got some people in the area to help.īy the following morning there were 200 searchers there, calling for Lillian. (People going missing while picking berries is a theme in these cases.) They were there for a short amount of time, and the parents said she just vanished. Lillian and her parents went blueberry picking. Lillian was from Masardis, Maine, which is 15 miles west of the Canadian boarder and surrounded by lakes, rivers, and ponds. There’s also the sheer volume of missing persons cases that would qualify as especially “strange”. Because of this, no one even knows how many people are currently missing in parks. The national parks service has no database where missing people are tracked across the system.

The books, called the Missing 411 series, explore what Paulides calls a “mysterious series of worldwide disappearances defying logical and conventional explanations.” While Paulides isn’t the most reputable source (he’s also a cryptozoologist, having spent years researching Bigfoot) but his research raises questions that would make anyone wonder.įor instance, why is something so simple as a list of people currently missing in national parks so elusive? Missing 411 The cases he found were strange and numerous enough that the man, David Paulides, has since written six volumes of work documenting the phenomena.
They were too afraid of retaliation to appear in uniform and asked that the national park they work for and the time period they met the author be kept secret. This is not a phenomenon that has been occurring in just the last few decades, clusters of missing people have been identified as far back as the 1800's.It sounds like an urban legend: an author and former policeman was on vacation when he was approached by two off-duty rangers who asked him to look into the number of people who go missing in the national park system. Topography does play a part into the age of the victims and certain clusters have specific age and sex consistency that is baffling. The research depicts 28 clusters of missing people across the continent, something that has never been exposed and was a shocking find to researchers. The belief by the relatives is not an isolated occurrence it replicates itself time after time, case after case across North America. As Search and Rescue personnel exhaust leads and places to search, relatives start to believe kidnappings and abductions have occurred. The book chronicles children, adults and the elderly who disappeared, sometimes in the presence of friends and relatives. Nobody has ever studied the archives for similarities, traits and geographical clusters of missing people, until now.Ī tip from a national park ranger led to this three year, 7000+ hour investigative effort into understanding the stories behind people who have vanished. It's understood that people routinely get lost, some want to disappear but this story is about the unusual.
Missing-411 is the first comprehensive book about people who have disappeared in the wilds of North America.
