Bones Unearthed in Knight's Addition Draw Skeptical Theories
Six human skeletons found buried in Rockford's Knight's Addition suggest pre white settlement, possibly immigrant victims from fifty or sixty years ago, while experts dispute Indian origins and note the region's long history of conflict and displacement. The discovery prompts reflection on local history and raises questions about past crimes and population movements.
