back to it so like I said we're talking about the solder family today specifically the solder children that went missing the five five solder children that went missing on Christmas Eve 1945 and the incident would involve a devastating house fire in fville West Virginia Which destroyed the solder Family Home and allegedly claimed the lives of five of their children sounds pretty open shut case right no and that's why you're watching this video there is a lot of conspiracy and theories around this case it's extremely interesting and I think you guys will will be very interested to hear about it I'm very curious what you guys think down below so let's let's get into it so let's start out with the solder family background the solder family was composed of Italian immigrants George solder and his wife Jenny along with their 10 children that's a lot of children I know it was back way back when but my my God I couldn't even imagine having one gives me anxiety I don't have one the idea of having one gives me anxiety I digress so George solder originally named Georgio sodu was born in Tula Sardinia in 1895 he would immigrate to the United States in 1908 at the age of 13 escaping poverty in Italy to seek a better life in America like many other immigrants of the time and he would eventually find work in the Pennsylvania coal mines and after several years he would work many different jobs but he would settle in fville West Virginia and fville a small coal mining town had a significant population of Italian immigrants and George would quickly establish himself as a successful businessman in the community and by 1945 George had now owned a trucking company that transported Goods including coal throughout the region he was known for his strong opinions particularly about Bonito musolini have you heard of him great guy but by great he's not he was the fascist leader of Italy whom George vocally criticized even before melini's downfall in 1943 and his outspoken views on Italian politics were a source of tension in the Italian American Community many of whom were still loyal to melini for reasons I'll never understand and Jenny solder who was born in 1899 was also an Italian immigrant she would manage the household and take care of the 10 children John Joseph Maran George Jr Maurice Martha Lewis Jenny Betty and Sylvia and the solders were generally considered well respected within their community and George's business provided a very comfortable life for the large family which is crazy because supporting 10 kids I can't even think about how much it would cost nowadays like maybe $2 back then I don't know I'm just kidding but that's crazy George was doing real good however this outward success may have masked the underlying tensions that played a critical role in the events that unfolded in December 1945 so let's talk about the infamous night of the fire so on the evening of December 24th 1945 the family would celebrate Christmas Eve together one of the sons would be away in the Army but the rest of them were able to spend Christmas together Maran the eldest daughter had bought toys for the younger children as Christmas presents and They begged to stay up late to play with their new Christmas presents and Jenny would eventually allow Maurice who was 14 and Martha who was 12 and LS who was N9 and Jenny who was 8 and Betty who was five to remain awake after the rest of the family went to bed to play with their new toys and the events of the night would unfold in a extremely chaotic matter at around 1:00 a. m.
Jenny would be awakened by a very strange phone call from a woman asking for a name Jenny did not recognize Jenny could hear laughter and clinking glasses in the background Jenny would tell the caller that she had the wrong number though and she would hang up the phone and that's when she would notice that the lights downstairs were still on and the curtains were open also and this was very unusual for the household because the children were continuously told to close the curtains before going to bed and Jenny just assuming that the kids had forgotten went downstairs to close the curtains and also check to lock the door and also turn off the lights before going going back to bed and then about 30 minutes later Jenny was startled awake again this time a loud bang on the roof that was followed by a rolling noise however the noise would subside and she would just fall back to sleep thinking nothing of it and not long afterward at about 1:30 a. m.
