Lillian Rose Martin, 77, and her ten-year-old grandson Joshua Roland Paul Bryant vanished from their Deltona, Florida home on May 12, 2001. They lived with Lillian’s granddaughter Joanne Miller, Joanne’s husband John, and their son. Joanne said she left the house about 7:00 a.m. and returned near 11:00 a.m. to find the front unlocked, Lillian’s Ford Tempo in the driveway, the master bedroom vandalized, and the television left on. Lillian’s purse with keys, cards, money, and ID remained, as did Joshua’s bicycle and toys; none of Lillian’s bank or credit cards showed activity after the disappearance. Joshua’s shoes were missing from the scene, suggesting he was barefoot.

In June 2004 skeletal remains identified as Joshua were found in woods in Cassadaga, about five miles from the home. Investigators later focused on electrician Douglas Manning McClymont, who had been interviewed soon after the 2001 disappearances and whose later, separate crime spree ended in suicide in 2004. A witness placed a man with tape and a young boy entering the woods where Joshua was found, and one woman McClymont had kidnapped says he confessed to killing both Lillian and Joshua. A gold watch like one Lillian owned was recovered near Joshua’s eyeglasses but not definitively identified. Lillian’s remains have never been found and her case remains unresolved.

Did anyone in Deltona or Cassadaga remember seeing Lillian, Joshua, or that Ford Tempo in May 2001?
