They found a partial skeleton belonging to a white female, "a woman's shoe, an empty bottle and a sextant box whose serial numbers are consistent with a type known to have been carried by Noonan." When did this find occur?

1940, as in 72 years ago.

The real mystery is how the disappearance was considered "unsolved" for all this time.
