Orphans of Babylon

 

The only note against this slide was "Mrs Rosenberg", so ... that's one of the three with a possible identity.

And the title  of this post ?  It's one of my favourite tracks by Be Bop Deluxe.

Mike "The Strike" Southern

 

He may have been a bit of a failure as a husband. Or father, or accountant, or as a baseball coach..

However, Mike The Strike redeemed himself (slightly) by being slightly above average as a bowler.

Bonus - The Phantom of Heilbronn, often alternatively referred to as the "Woman Without a Face", was a hypothesized unknown female serial killer whose existence was inferred from DNA evidence found at numerous crime scenes in Austria, France and Germany from 1993 to 2009.

Sorry. A bit distracted today.
