Spring 1959
In the spring of 1959 a road grader working on a dirt road near the Grand Canyon uncovered neatly folded clothing, which law enforcement officials believe was from the skeletal remains found last fall near the same spot.
Anthropologist's examination of the remains concluded that they were of a girl of Spanish or Indian descent and estimated to be about 14 years old. She may have been dead for a year before she was discovered.

Could she be
March 1, 1958 - San Pedro, California.
Donnis Marie Redman, age 14, was last seen with her boyfriend in Las Vegas, NV. (At 14 what is she doing accompanying a boyfriend to Las Vegas?)
The boyfriend's car was located near Williams, Arizona a few days later. There was no sign of Donnis. There is no information on who the boyfriend was or if he was ever found.
Information about this case is not available on the internet but the Los Angeles County Sheriff's department is in charge of this open missing person case.
There is DNA available for comparison.

Who Is She?
The anthropology’s preliminary report indicate that the unidentified young women, found by two Yuma hunters on October 31, 1958, was between 13 to 17 years of age and had been deceased for about a year prior to being discovered near the Grand Canyon.
The remains were described as possible Native American. Other items found with or near the remains were a locket and chain, clothing and a tuft of hair.
There are no indication of anyone coming forth to identify the remains or any of the items found. The remains were named "Little Miss X". Her case is still unsolved, but not forgotten.
In 1962 a letter, sent to the Connecticut State Police, alerted the troopers to a possible connection of a missing girl from Northwest Connecticut a few years before.
Could she be the missing ten year old girl who walked away from her summer camp in 1952?
