In fairness I should note that I was already predisposed to think up inanimate answers after watching everyone guess people for my last riddle.

Anyway! This one is not a landmass or building. You're looking for who and when:

But none can find on any trail.
In the dark the truth I seek
But all I find's a sudden squeak.
