Unidentified Wiki

"Unknown Bairn" was the nickname given to a young boy whose body washed ashore at Tayport Beach in Fife, Scotland.

A local postman named Ian Robertson found the body and it is suspected the boy died of natural causes. There were rumors that the boy came from a Traveller family, but his identity has never been established.
