QUINCY, CALIF., (UPI) – Scattered wreckage of a light plane which vanished March 11 carrying four persons, two of them former Utahns, was found Sunday along a Sierra ridge 30 miles southwest of here.
Sheriff W. C. Abernethy said occupants of the plane have been identified as Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dalziel and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Coleman, all of Oakland. The women were sisters and former residents of Cache County.
Sheriff Abernethy said Mr. Dalziel was pilot of the plane which disappeared last March on a flight from Reno, Nev., to Oakland.
A wallet belonging to Mr. Dalziel was found near the burned plane. Sheriff Abernethy said bone remnants in the area indicated “at least three bodies” were at the crash scene.
Indications were that all occupants of the plane died immediately. The rugged ridge along which the wreckage was strewn made it impossible to bring out anything more than personal effects Sunday, the sheriff said.
The plane was discovered by search parties alerted by the finding of a piece of the plane’s wing in the middle of the Feather River.
Mrs. Rosine[Roszeen] Dalziel, 33, was born May 16, 1928, a daughter of Ray L. [Albiston] and Levisa Thompson. She was married to Mr. Dalziel in Oakland. The couple had four sons and a daughter, Robert, Gary, Donnie, Tommy and Nancy, all of Oakland.
Mrs. BonAdell Coleman, 36, was a sister of Mrs. Dalziel and also was born in Richmond, Cache County. She was married to Richard Coleman in Oakland and the marriage was later solemnized in the Logan Temple Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
A son, Richard, and a daughter, Judy, survive.
