The Bizzare Story Of The Lost Children Of The Alleghenies

July 2024 · 2 minute read

The search didn’t provide clues regarding the boys’ whereabouts, and little by little, people started to suspect that Samuel and Susanna Cox were the ones responsible for the disappearance of Joseph and George. They searched their cabin and areas near the home but nothing was found, per The Lineup. Nearly two weeks after Joseph and George Cox went missing, a farmer named Jacob Dibert started having vivid dreams. In it, he was looking for a deer carcass in the forest when he stumbled upon a child’s shoe near a stream and a ravine. Following the trail, he used a fallen tree to cross the stream, and it was there where he discovered the bodies of the Cox boys.

Dibert shared the details of his dream with his wife, but he didn’t alert anyone else. However, he continued to have the same dream a few more nights, and that was when he told his brother-in-law, Harrison Whysong, about it, as reported by We Are Central PA. Upon hearing the details, Whysong said that he might know the location that Dibert described. The two proceeded to go to the site and little by little, Dibert’s dream was becoming reality. They came across a dead deer, a child’s shoe, and a fallen tree that allowed them to go across a ravine. When they got to the other side, they discovered the dead bodies of the Cox boys by the roots of a birch tree.
