Her family ran alot of ads trying to find her, it's quite heartbreaking. I won't post them all here but just wanted to put that out there. They started running ads Oct 23, 1986.

She was a member of the Sun-Ray club, which was Vancouver Sun's section for kids comics. Not super relevant to her case but still wanted to post.

Interestingly it looks like her family lived on a house boat in at Heather Civic Marina in False Creek. Not sure if her family was docked at the same location when she went missing.

"Olding's 19-year old daughter Lenora walked out of their False Creek home on Oct. 16 and hasn't returned."

"[Madeline] "went through the whole business" of comparing dental charts and other distinguishing features." Dentals should be available unless the files were lost.

Looks like she snuck out at night - was she meeting someone?

Her case started getting attention again after Pickton was arrested.

"Olding..was not known to be involved in the sex trade, were not involved in drugs, and were not known to spend time in Vancouver's downtown eastside."

Her mother died in 2004, she's listed as predeceased in her obituary.
