The famous Charles Limbergh baby kidnapping took place very near here, back in 1932.  Kidnapped from his cot, the body of the 18mth old was found nearby 2 months later with a smashed skull.  Bruno Richard Hautman was found guilty of the kidnapping and executed.  A huge story, worldwide, at the time, our new friend Grace lives on Limbergh Road, very close to where it all happened.  A lot of history in this wee place.
