Sep. 09, 1953 - Mrs. Maclean vanishes with her children: Mrs. Melinda Maclean, wife of the missing British diplomat, Donald Maclean, and her children, have “disappeared and are being looked for”, a spokesman of the British Consulate General said in Geneva today. The Foreign Office have been told of Mrs. Maclean's disappearance. Some weeks ago Mrs. Maclean went on holiday to Majorca, in the Balearic Isles.
