Looking for any information on Maryella Ruth Lough, my Great Aunt, born 1/29/1940 to Esther Efnor Brown Lough and Dr. S. Allan Lough (married 6/12/1926). Allan Lough was senior physicist at the Atomic Energy Commission during the Manhattan Project, the Bikini Atoll blasts, plus oversaw the Fernald School radiated oatmeal experiments. He died a troubled man because of it.

Maryella Lough's last whereabouts was a psychiatric hospital somewhere in "upstate" New York in the late 1960's. She had the mental illness of Pseudocyesis, or false pregnancy. She apparently never improved. It's not right a woman can simply disappear & there be no record, & no one held accountable.

Maryella's maternal grandmother was Ella May Efnor (Brown), married to Ulysses Grant Brown.

Maryella's mother was my paternal Grandmother's (Ruth Madge Brown (Burket) sister.

Thank you for any leads. =)
