Yes, very good find !

St-Hubert and St-Jerome are very close (under an hour, I believe). Keep us posted :)

The address is a single family home (can find on Google maps...). There may have been a TB hospital nearby, but these pictures are probably of the residents of that house. The house does not currently have a registered landline, and has not been sold in recent years.

Rickets were not identified as being linked to Vitamin D deficiency in Canada until 1961. This UID would have been a child before this time, so I'm not surprised about the childhood rickets: In 1961, Dr. Charles Scriver, a research pioneer at the Montreal Children's Hospital, linked rickets with...

Quick notes: although his RCMP missing file lists him as "Allen", he is referred to as "Alain" in the details - and the second is the more likely spelling. Also, there are no articles in French (or English for that matter) online regarding his disappearance in 1972. There are also no good leads...

I saw this in the paper a few days ago, and this made me curious. This man was most likely from Quebec, and these are probably family photos. I have a gut feeling about this missing man (Allen Robert Foy), missing since 1972: Canada's Missing | Case details (rcmp-grc.gc.ca) They even found his...

I received this today - it was good of him to respond so fast: Thank you for your submission, we appreciate your time and support. NamUs staff will review the submitted information. Additionally, we will notify the investigating agencies for their consideration if the agencies have not...

I used to submit more often back before Namus upgraded their system and stopped letting us see if there were identifiers (DNA, dentals, fingerprints). At least then there was something else I could put in the email like - "they both have dentals in the system, could someone compare ?". I didn't...

I did, but I never heard back from Namus. Some of the contacts are more responsive than others, and I do know I never did a follow-up. I believe this is him, as well...

I seriously need a weekday off to do some research on this - in the meantime, I'm just bumping this thread up so it doesn't get lost. We need to find out more about Seven - height, when she went into the Catholic Worker home, and anything else someone that knows these things could share. BTW -...

I received a response from Namus for my follow-up to see if DNA had been uploaded yet for Ruth Egnoski: We can not release any case information that is not publicly viewable. This includes biometrics as they are protected by HIPAA. So I guess that's that. I had to look up HIPAA - now we...

I know I never found the month. You are right, that would be helpful.

And lastly, one thing that really bothers me about Seven's case is that her fingerprints couldn't be read - disfigured somehow. This had to have either been done to her, or done by her - either scenario makes me very sad.

I'm also extremely frustrated with the new format in the "new and improved" Namus that doesn't show DNA, dentals, etc. I wouldn't have even known that Renee's DNA isn't in the system except for an email I had sent to the retired detective as I could see it in Namus at the time. I think that's...

Well it turns out Lehtinen is Finnish, so the same neck of the woods :). No, I never looked at Elaine as I was looking for connections to Chicago, but anything is possible especially as she disappeared in 1976. I was so clouded by my conviction (that was wrong) that she was Mary Ann, and also...

My notes from last year on Seven: Seven – miscellaneous notes: Lived in a Catholic Worker home in Chicago from 1976 until 2003 (for 27 years, calling herself Seven real name unknown, as per newspaper articles) 2003 to November 2015 (death) lived in nursing home as a dementia patient Cook...

I did some pretty extensive research on this case last year when I was convinced that this lady was Mary Ann Switalski. I found a retired detective in Chicago who worked on Mary Ann’s case and is still very engaged in finding her. He had not been aware of this lady and the article in the Chicago...

Possibly - or thinks their missing son is a straight male and never would have looked outside the box to find a match to this person.

Good point, but in my 1980s childhood recollections, everyone was wearing crosses for fashion. You never know....

Three years later, no ? Martin disappeared c 1980
