About this Episode
On August 23, 1912, Percy and Lessie Dunbar loaded their two young sons and left their Opelousas home for a camping trip at nearby Swayze Lake. Four-year-old Bobby Dunbar wandered away from the family’s tent and disappeared that night. During a search, a boy matching Bobby’s age and description was found. Assuming this was the missing boy, “Bobby” was returned to the Dunbar family despite protests from a woman claiming to be the boy’s mother.
