Hi everyone,

The Mojave Desert stretches across the eastern portion of southern
California. This includes the "Antelope Valley" — an area encompassing
counties of San Bernardino and Kern. Even more unusual than the abduction
reports was the number of outright disappearances associated with the area.
Statistical analysis indicated that the number of missing-persons reports
from the area around those two counties is four times the per capita national
average. Often those disappearances involved hikers and sportsmen who were
assumed to have died from some accident or mishap and whose bodies were never
found. Sometimes locals living rustic lives in the desert or surrounding
mountains simply failed to show up for several months and their homesteads
were found abandoned. In fact, there are legends concerning disappearances in
this area that stretch back as long as humans have lived there, <A HREF="http://www.disorganization.com/Library/IndianStory.html">back as far
as the native indians.</A>
The abductions have also coincided with a long history of aerial phenomena.
The kind of sightings common to the Mojave area are sightings of groups of
multicolored lights, often rapidly changing color, moving irregularly through
the night sky. These aerial phenomena seem to be centered around two
well-known Kern County landmarks, Edwards Air Force base and Round Hill, near
Tehaccipi (<A HREF="http://www.disorganization.com/Library/IndianStory.html">a landmark that features prominently in indian legends of "winged
ones" from the constellation of the Great Bear</A>).
The oldest case was that of Mike Childers. In 1919, while hoboing across the
country, Childers spent what he thought was a night in the woods near
Tehacippi. When he awoke and set off on his way, he discovered that the year
was I934 and America had passed into the Great Depression. Childers made a
small media splash as a modern Rip Van Winkle, but was never able to discover
what happened to the fifteen years he'd lost. It wasn't until 1990 that the
decrepit Childers began to have nightmares that hinted at forgotten memories.
Having seen Dr. Denton Schaeffer on a tabloid talk show about repressed
memories, he mailed Schaeffer a description of his experience and dreams
(along with his collection of journal articles and news clippings about him
from the mid-1930s). Schaeffer interviewed and hypnotized Childers on thirty
occasions before Childers' death in 1995 and was able to uncover a vivid
tapestry of dark and horrifying memories in which Childers was taken beneath
the ground by chattering alien creatures who surgically removed his brain and
transported it to alien realms.The most disturbing part of this case is the
medical evidence that Childers was subjected to extensive and inexplicable
cranial surgery sometime during the 1920s.
Am looking for anyone with connections to the
following branch of my family tree. Am willing to
share
what little information that I have. Please email me
privately.

I am looking for information about John (1830) & Betti (1835) Childers. I
found them on the 1880 census living next door to their daughter Lou (Louisa)
Gibbs (1854), James Gibbs (1848) and Granddaughter (my Grandmother) Annie Lee
Gibbs (1878). Living with them were Logan Childers (1860) and Lizzie Childers
(1863). Logan Childers raised my Grandmother Annie. They were living in the
Campobello area of Spartanburg South Carolina. If any one has any information
about these Childers -- please let me know. Thank you, Barbara Channell
I wish to thank all those that have sent me cemetery information, and
photo's. I'll try to have those all posted in the next few days. Also, to
all those that haven't sent in their cemetery information yet, I'm still
taking info to post.
