Real Name: Ada Constance Kent
Nicknames: Connie Ada Kent
Location: Whalebone Corner, England
Date: 1939

Case

Details: Ada Constance Kent was a wealthy spinster who lived alone in a cottage near Whalebone Corner, Fingringhoe, Essex. After she vanished in 1939, the local police searched her cottage for clues but found no trace of her. Years later, in April 1948, there was a mysterious deposit to her bank account and the police returned to the cottage to look for Ada again. They found her fully-clothed skeletal remains positioned at a table before a fresh plate of food. The British authorities are unaware of who returned her body to the house. Surprisingly, police later determined that the remains were not Ada's, and to this day, Ada remains missing. The skeleton has never been identified.
Suspects: Police suspect that the person who placed the deposit in the bank account placed the remains in Ada's house and was possibly the killer of both women.
Extra Notes: This case appears in the book, "Lost And Never Found" by Anita Larsen.
