On this Friday Follow-Up, we update with information brought to us by two descendants of an important latter-day figure in the case. After 4-year-old Charley Ross vanished in a carriage with two men who'd offered him candy and fireworks, police at first told his father to wait it out. Surely the men had no bad intentions. Then came the first ransom letter. And another. And another. In 1874, the Charley Ross case marked the first time in American history that a child had been stolen for money.

Most children growing up are admonished not to take candy from strangers. It is good advice, but it isn't advice that comes from nowhere. It comes from a particular incident 150 years ago that shocked the world and changed how we view children's safety. It was an event, the echos of which can be seen today in efforts to find abducted children. Learn more about the kidnapping of Charley Ross on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

On July 1, 1874: 4-year old Charley Ross was abducted by two men and became the very first victim of kidnap for ransom in the United States. 65 years later, in 1939, a man named Gustave Blair came forward to claim that he was Charley Ross. Is it possible that Charley and Gustave are one in the same? If this story sounds familiar, it should, because I first brought you the case of Charley Ross in episode 3 of Dying to be Found The DASH. But keep listening, because today, Rod Miller, a direct decendent of Gustave Blair, will bring us even more facts to Charley's story that just may get us a little closer to the truth.Listen to the Dying to be Found: The DASH series every Wednesday wherever you get your podcasts!

On July 1, 1874, 6-year-old Walter and 4-year-old Charley Ross were playing outside in the front of their home when two men drove by in a horse and carriage. After riding by a few days earlier and offering the boys candy, imagine their delight when the same men offered to buy them firecrackers! Charley and Walter both jumped into the men's wagon and rode off to town to stock up on fireworks for the upcoming holiday. When Walter went inside to make his purchase, Charley stayed with the men, who quickly rode away, leaving Walter behind. This is the story of the first kidnapping for ransom case ever documented in United States history, and what lengths his father, Christian, went through to try to bring his son back home.If you have information on missing or exploited children in your area, visit www.missingkids.org or call 1.800.THE.LOST or 1.800.843.5678.Dang to be Found and Dying to be Found: The DASH are now part of Sound Slice Audio Productions!

Dramatický hon za únosci čtyřletého chlapce pokračuje.

In 1939, Gustave Blair convinced an Arizona court that he was the missing Charley Ross. He was never able to convince the Ross family or the public, though, and if he really was Charley he took that secret to his grave... Or did he? Transcript, sources, links and more at https://order-of-the-jackalope.com/i-am-not-charley-ross/ Presented by #16 (Rod Miller). Rod is a descendant of the Miller family that was allegedly involved in the kidnapping of Charley Ross, and grew up in family of ten boys and three girls in Mason City, Iowa. He holds a master's degree in social work from the University of Northern Iowa, settled in Minneapolis 35 years ago with his life partner, and retired from the mental health profession in 2011. His interest in geneaology began in 1977 when his father removed a black satchel from a mildewed cardboard drum his our wet basement, handed it to him, and said "This is Charley Ross."

The kind of guy who history might have easily forgotten were it not for the bombshell he dropped as he lay dying at the scene of a burglary. He says he has answers to a question that has gripped the nation. Where is four-year-old Charley Ross, and why did Douglas and a fellow crook take him and leave his brother behind?

4 year old Charley Ross and his 6 year old brother Walter had been playing in front of their home on a hot July morning in Germantown, Philadelphia, when they were approached by a horse and buggy driven by two strange men. The men offered them candy, and then came back the next day, and the next, slowly building the boys' trust in them before abducting little Charley. As I say repeatedly in this case, there are so many questions in this case and I definitely feel like I have more questions than answers. Don't forget to let me know your thoughts and theories on this case - I go back and forth on mine! I hope you enjoyed today's historical, bonus mini-sode and I will be back soon with another exciting case. Stay safe!

High street fashion giant Inditex has appointed the founder's daughter as its new chair. The firm owns brands including Zara and Massimo Dutti, and we find out what's behind the appointment of Marta Ortega from fashion journalist Charley Ross. The news comes a day after the company's expansion plans in France were blocked over a probe into whether Inditex benefits from the use of forced labour of Uyghurs in China. Inditex insists it does not, and we get the background from Clare Bailey, who is an industry consultant, specialising in clothing company supply chains. Also in the programme, authoritarian regimes are thought to be working closer than ever to keep each other afloat, with plenty of help from the West's financial system. We hear from Frank Vogl, who helped found the global anti-corruption organisation Transparency International. And we get wider context from the historian, journalist and author, Anne Applebaum. Plus, a dispute has broken out over the role of the ukulele in children's music education. Is it a good thing that more kids are picking up the simple stringed instrument, or is it to the detriment of more sophisticated music skills such as learning the guitar? Andy Eastwood is one of the few professional ukulele players in the UK, and gives us his perspective, and we find out more from Lincoln Abbott, executive director of the ABRSM, which runs music exams in the UK, and issued the report on the rise of the ukulele.
In this episode, we'll explore disappearance and lasting legacy of Charley Ross. Charley was the first confirmed kidnapped for ransom victim in the United States. The action, and in some instances lack of action, helped shape the way that kidnapping cases are treated today. His name lives on in the website The Charley Project, a database for missing people.
