In this episode of Heartland Mysteries, we take you back to May 1904 in the small town of Seelyville, Indiana, where five-year-old Richmond Byers vanished without a trace. Despite extensive searches and a desperate plea from his father, the boy was never found. Years later, a mysterious letter and several false leads reignited hope, but Richmond’s fate remained a heart-wrenching mystery. We’ll explore the key events surrounding his disappearance, including a letter found by Thomas Snedeker in 1908 that seemed to offer a clue, and Dr. Byers’ heartbreaking journey to Oklahoma in 1911 to identify a boy he believed might be his son. The episode examines the toll this unsolved case took on the Byers family and the small Indiana community, as well as the tantalizing hints that led nowhere. Join us as we recount one of Indiana’s oldest unsolved child disappearance cases and ponder the enduring question: what happened to Richmond Byers? And remember, every mystery is a story in search of an ending. For sources information and photos visit heartlandmysteries.com/richmond-byers
