Are you referring to the kidnapping of Charles Lindbergh? If so, here is the sequence of events:

1. the baby was put to sleep at about 8 PM on March 1, 1932

2. at about 9:30 there was a noise in the house

3. at 10 PM, the nurse went to check on the baby but found it gone

4. the police came to the house 20 minutes later

5. unidentified fingerprints and footprints were found around the house

6. the police continued searching for many days

There was no real progress until May 12, when the baby's body was found - it had been murdered the same day it was kidnapped. The baby was Charles Augustus Lindbergh's son, who was a famous American aviator.
