Published: March 21, 2023, 8 a.m.

On August 23, 1912, a four-year-old boy named Bobby Dunbar vanished while on a fishing trip to Swayze Lake in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana. When Mrs. Lessie Dunbar realized that her son was gone, she contacted the police, who began a massive search for the boy.\xa0

Eight months passed before the family\u2019s hopes for Bobby\u2019s return were finally realized \u2014\u2013 or at least that\u2019s how it seemed. But no part of this story would turn out to be simple. The boy who returned home was NOT Bobby Dunbar.
