The first person to disappear was that of Middie Rivers. a 75- year- old deer hunter who knew the area of the trail near Mount Glastenbury very well. State police, soldiers, boy scouts and local residents, combed the the woods after he failed to return from a day's hunting on November 12, 1945, but to no avail.
After Paula Welden went missing, James Telford, a third victim was last seen on the trail on December 1, 1949. Early in 1950, Frieda Langier, who was described as an experienced Woodswoman, disappeared while hiking the trail. Her body was found on May 12, 1951, in an open spot in the woods that was apparently overlooked in earlier searches.
When Martha Jones disappeared on November 6, 1950, it was thought that she had run off to join her boyfriend in Virginia. When this was proven not to be the case, a search was launched with no results.
The last one to go missing was Frances Christman, who set out to visit a friend three miles away and was never seen again.
In all three cases there seems to be no connection except for the location and the time of year the disappearances occured, all of them happened in either November or December,
