Was she credible?

I think it was just her personal opinion But mark twain is huge and a short drive from springfield

It's a credible idea all around. It's a huge, densely wooded, low visibility, and low population area, and there's no reason to dig in any random given spot.
There's probably parts of the forest surprisingly close to Springfield that human eyes only see every year or so.

Interesting. We could do random digs around there.

You won't find anything of note, you'll take the rest of your life attempting it, and won't get anywhere close to finished.
Digging in Missouri is an exercise to try the patience of a saint, or the desperation of a murderer. I can't imagine the amount of work it would take to bury three bodies, even in the best of Missouri soil.

Mabye there were empty shafts or wells where they put them?

We only have lead mining, and none of it is close to Springfield.
And our wells are typically cased 10" steel pipes. Old style wells do exist, but they're rare enough you'd have to know of an abandoned one beforehand. That would be harder to find than just digging a grave.

That forest is huge and very rugged. Easy to hide a body if you can get it in there far enough. And if you can't, some unfortunate hunter finds it eventually.
