Woman's Father Sees Crash Debris From Roswell Flying Saucer in July, 1947 

Recently (October 13, 2004) I met a woman before I spoke to a group to the South of Seattle, Washington (Federal Way).  The woman recounted her experience when only 13 years old.  She wasn't sure of the exact date, but was sure that it was after the press conference in which General Ramey debunked the crashed saucer as a weather balloon. She was convinced that it was in July of 1947.  She said that her father was looking for work at the time and was driving north of Roswell.  He stopped at one of the ranches north of Roswell to inquire about work.  She said that her father talked to the rancher alone for a considerable period of time and came back to the truck where the family was waiting and said that the rancher had found some strange debris in a field and that the debris was from the flying saucer that had recently crashed north of Roswell.  The woman's father would not allow the kids to see the debris and was quite upset by it.  He was afraid that the debris could be harmful to the children.  The rancher said that the debris was very light and very strong.  He could not cut the debris with any of his tools.  This rancher was not Mac Brazel (the rancher famous for bringing the debris to Sheriff Roy Wilcox in Roswell).  Apparently this rancher found the debris before Mac Brazel did and never turned it in.  She said that his story was similar to Mac Brazel in that the debris was spread out in the pasture over a wide area.

Investigator comments:  This is an interesting story.  I have never met the woman before, but she seemed quite certain of what happened.  I have no reason to doubt her story.  If this story is true, it would open the possibility that some of the Roswell debris was never recovered by the U.S. Military.  The rancher would be very old if still alive.  I don't see any potential for investigating this case further.  It does open the possibility that other citizens may still have some of the crashed saucer debris.
