The Somerton Man

[Tish]

Thanks @Tish I seen that on the news on my iPad what a relief for this man’s family
if he has any ?? and the people behind the 70+ years of research to try to identify
the mystery “ Somerton man“ Wonder if they will now re - bury his remans with his name on his grave instead of the unknown man found on Somerton beach in 1948.

We took part in a SA history tour and walked right past his grave about 6-7 years ago

Thanks for the “tag” it’s something I’ve always been interested in each time it’s popped up in the news
It’s sad the Beaumont children’s disappearance still remains a mystery, where they disappeared from (Glenelg) is only about 2 km from where the Somerton man was found.

So with SM now being solved at long last, let’s hope the investigators can now solve what happed to the children

Those tours really look interesting. I really hope they rebury him under his name.
I am wondering when and if he has any offspring, it must be a huge relief to them.

@Kadee46
Good to see you!

@Tish
This is quite the breakthrough, after so many decades. May his soul Rest In Peace.

I agree and I hope he does rest in peace now.

Thanks for this @Tish just read through it. Mostly new to me, one of our great mysteries.

Now we know who he was, do we know how he died, who did it, or why?

Unfortunately, we don't know how he died or why as yet.
