Michael - do you think there will be any pertinent information in that box at Yale? Do you think CAL had a date of 2023 because he thought his children (the ones with Anne would have died by then)? I don't think he would ever, ever let the truth come from him. This is a great question and I would defer to Wayne about it since he's researched at Yale. My guess is there will be something of interest. But then again I am interested in a lot of things sometimes others don't see any value in. But I agree with you that it won't be a "smoking gun."

I can't answer why only those boxes were sealed. The story broke in 2003. www.mnhs.org/lindbergh/learn/family/double-lifeAnne died in 2001. The boxes with the mistress correspondence were apparently part of the 2002 addition to Yale's collection. Perhaps CAL/AML's estate put a freeze on accessing the correspondence related to the mistresses for 20 years from the time the materials were given to Yale? From the Yale CAL Papers Guide describing additions to the collection over time: The papers were the gift of Charles A. Lindbergh and his estate, 1941-1988; gift of Joan Lovrien, 2001; gift of the Estate of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, 2002; gift of Reeve Lindbergh, 2003; gift of Harlan L. Gurney, 2004; transferred from Princeton University Library, 2015.
