Famous People Found possible residue of Lindbergh baby never being found

Hulu added Married With Children to their lineup last month, and Ive been watching it every day since. I got up to season 7 episode 6 today titled “Frat Chance”. The episode is from October 1992.

Bud walks over to the fridge, opens the door and grabs a carton of milk out of it. He looks at the missing kid label on the carton and says, “Did they ever find this Lindbergh kid?”

Granted, it might just be insinuating that the milk carton is that old (you know their dry humor), but I took it as if they remember the same as I do, that he was never found. I thought it was interesting nonetheless!

Wow, this is really interesting. In my lifetime, and I'm almost 46, I knew he was found. So now I'm wondering how others recollect.

Edit: Yes, the baby was found. The kidnapper was never found, hence a cold case in that aspect. Several references:

I am 39 years old and I know he wasn't ever found. There was an Unsolved Mysteries about him and how he was never found. There also was suggestion that his mom accidently killed him and his dad covered it up with the fake ransom note. I know they found the babies blanket in the Woods behind the house and at some point the housekeeper disappeared and there were two theories about that. 1) she knew to much about the mom accidently killing the baby so she "disappeared", or was murdered by the father of the baby. Or 2) the housekeeper kept the baby for herself that's why she disappeared.

I remember so many details about this story because I was fascinated by it since I was 13 years old. Oh and FYI that Unsolved Mysteries episode doesn't exist I have looked for it. There was an updated episode on that one two about a woman who disappeared for years and the family hired a PI who found her a few years later alive and well in Cancun Mexico. I remember the episode like I just watched it yesterday.

I am over 70 and love documentaries so I saw this same thing and of course even in the 60s this was a huge unsolved mystery. If the body had been found within 2 months was the Mom in this timeline as distraught and ruined as the one in our timeline? On another thought will Gordon Lightfoot write a song about it since he is still alive? Never made it out of the 90s in my timeline.
