My first thought is that Kenneth Parnell was abducting boys that age from nearby counties in the early 1970's. I think one boy was from Ukiah which I think is fairly close.

Unfortunately, I don't think that would help as he died recently in prison.

Azlaw - looks very similar. The eyes are not as round, but if it is a reconstruction, it is very easy to be off. Did not the description of the clothing say 'skirt'? I'll have to go back and re-read that.

Okay, I know that this is a LOOONNNGGGG shot, but here it is:

He would have been just about the right age, and we don't know for sure that "big for his age" would translate to growing large. He also has those round eyes (maybe baby eyes, but they look similar to me).

So sad that a young child like that could be missing for so long and not one person would come forward to identify him. It just breaks my heart to know that there are children out there without a soul in the world to love them.

Looks like a possible to me KYGAL, even though the distance is quite a ways. Especially since baby David may have disappeared with a couple living in a bus. They may have been travelling and ended up in CA. Wouldn't hurt to at least contact the DOE Network or LE.

Wouldn't hurt to check! The nose is similar for sure. And small for age doesn't mean much in the doe, since they were guessing at the age anyway, kwim?

Could be but the unid'd boy is small stature and the missing boy is large for his age. who knows though its worth checking.

What about Douglas Charles Chapman? Missing since '71 in Alfred ME, born in '68. It is a long shot, but the chin looks similar.
