INFANTICIDE: March 27, 1936 Rich Hill, Missouri Baby Jane Doe

On March 27, 1936, the body of a newborn baby girl was found floating in a well in Rich Hill, Missouri. The well was located in a pasture near a home.

This was the second newborn found in the area at the time as a few days before a different infant was found east of Rich Hill. I could not find much on this infant or if their parents were identified or if the possibility of these cases are connected.
