The mysterious death of a young woman near Rose Park Cemetery in Portland, Oregon back in 1911 has captured and kept my attention ever since I first discovered it as a small piece posted in a local paper posted on a newspaper database. But as I gained more and more information I discovered what was deemed, at least, to be the official name of the victim. However, I have a lot of issues with how that victim died and how this Rose City Park victim died in terms of being the same person. It's a truly obscure case with lots of oddities and... problems. Join me here as I delve into the case and provide my personal take on the matter.
