Linda knew that Lucy was born in Alaska and had lived in Alaska and Yukon until 1953. Linda decided to post some advertisements in the newspapers of the northern area, hoping that someone there might know of her mother.
New Entry
Linda’s advertisement for her missing mother reads as follows, “I am looking for my relatives. My grandparents’ names are Margaret and Andrew Carvell. My mother’s name is Lucy Ann Carvell. She was born October 14, 1935 in Skagway.”
Rhonda
One day, a woman named Rhonda contacted Linda in the context of the advertisement. Rhonda lived in Yukon and was at work in Whitehorse when her brother had contacted her to check Linda’s advertisement in the Yukon News. He had seen the advertisement and wanted her to check it as well.
Mystery
As soon as Rhonda saw the advertisement, she was in for a shock. She had no idea why was the ad put up in any newspaper and couldn’t understand a thing. She was so worried and confused because the woman about whom the advertisement was, was her mother.
Mother
Rhonda quickly called her mother and told her that there was a news post about her, with her photo attached to it, and it said she was missing. The voice from the other side of the phone said, ‘I’m not missing, I’m here. I was never hiding.’
Contacted
Rhonda immediately contacted Linda to clear the confusion and doubts that rose in her mind. And what unfolded next was something that raised even more questions but also gave answers to a lot of questions.
