Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh (the former Anne Morrow) holding her son, Charles Augustus
Lindbergh, Jr. This photo was made by his illustrious aviator father.

 

 

Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. Here he is himself- two weeks old. He was born June 22,
1930 in the Morrow home in Englewood, New Jersey- his mother's birthday, and the
announcement of his name came on the night of July 8.

 

 

On the night of the kidnapping the baby's nursemaid, Betty Gow, made the boy this shirt to
wear next to his skin for warmth. She cut out the sleeveless garment from a piece of
flannel she had been saving. In 2003 the Lindbergh family removed this evidence from
the Lindbergh archives.

Betty Gow placed an additional, store-bought shirt over the one she had made. This T-shirt
was one of a batch of ten that had been purchased at the same time. The other nine
shirts were at the Lindbergh estate. In 2003 the Lindbergh family removed this evidence
from the Lindbergh archives.

On the night of the kidnapping, Betty Gow tied a metal thumbguard to each sleeve of the
child's sleeping suit. On April 1, 1932, Gow found this thumbguard on the Lindbergh
estate driveway still attached to the string that had tied it to the baby's wrist.
 In 2003 the Lindbergh family removed this evidence from the Lindbergh archives.

The bones (mostly foot and hand), hair follicles, toe nail, and fiber fragments in the vials,
gathered by the NJSP, are from the Lindbergh baby gravesite on Mount Rose Heights,
two miles from the Lindbergh estate.
In 2003 the Lindbergh family removed this evidence from the Lindbergh archives.

The ransom bill on Hauptmann's person when he was arrested in New York City.
(JimFisher.edinboro.edu)

 

 

The ten-dollar ransom bill passed by Hauptmann at the Warner-Quinlan gas station in upper
Manhattan. One of the attendants penciled Hauptmann's license number - 4U13-41 - on the
margin of the bill. This information broke the case and led to Hauptmann's arrest.
(New Jersey State Police)

 

 

One-gallon shellac can found hidden in Hauptmann's garage containing
$11,930 in ten and twenty dollar ransom bills.
