Evelyn Hartley
Selected Articles from the La Crosse Tribune newspaper

La Crosse Public Library staff selected the following subjects to highlight from the La Crosse Area Clipping File. While these include just a taste of the vast materials available at the Library, we invite you to please contact us with any specific question you may have about the La Crosse area. Our thanks to the La Crosse Tribune for their permission in bringing you these materials.  We tried to create printable images and the paper size and orientation are given after the title of the article.

Because these are links to images, your web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 7.0+) may automatically shrink the images. You can then leave your cursor over the image and a tool bar will appear and you can then resize the image.

Evelyn Hartley

Evelyn Hartley was a 15 year old high school student who disappeared from a home on La Crosse's south side during a babysitting job in Oct. 1953. Evidence suggested that Evelyn was taken against her will, but despite diligent efforts on behalf of the police, sheriff and other law enforcement agencies, this case has never been solved.
