Time Travel Question 30: Murder and
Disappearance Edition III
Given that Roanoke and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things more mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart from a previous edition, but the evidence there is sketchier.
No, I'm not doing JFK. I refuse.
Please add new suggestions below, if you have them, for future consideration.

Ever heard this story about prolonged strawberry picking during a lakeside picnic got this Contessa placed in a convent? Wondering who she was? trove<dot>nla<dot>gov<dot>au/newspaper/article/180419605
Hello! Sorry it took me so long to answer. Anon is referring to this fragment of this Australian newspaper article they sent me, dated December 17 of 1912:
Honestly I've never heard anything of this, though I don't know much about Otto either. I'll keep an eye on it!
Also, interesting piece of alternative history on that article regarding Ludwig II and Sophie in Bavaria's failed engagement:
As far as I'm aware Queen Marie of Bavaria was content with her son's fiancée. Also, it seems rumors about Sophie being somehow involved with a photographer were already widely known by the early 20th century. Which were true, by the way, Sophie was meeting Edgar Hanfstaengl, son of the court photographer Franz Hanfstaengl, during the time of her brief engagement to Ludwig.

anyone who watched this movie, will be quick to notice they are still in their roles on this photo from premier (I think it was held in the Hofgarten in Munich Residenz)
Otto is looking lost everything is bit too much all the spotlights, Ludwig is happy prince fairytale king with his bird and brilliant childlike smile, and Richard is boyfriend material aka trophy boyfriend. Richard is Kenough.
