Doenet entry: http://doenetwork.org/cases/647ufar.html

Indicates she had "a remote healed misaligned and malunion of the lower 3rd of the left femur." Looking it up in a medical website, I found this information: http://www.mdguidelines.com/malunion-and-nonunion-of-fracture. "Remote" means farther away from the body. "Malunion" means the bone didn't knit together, and "misaligned" means it didn't heal in a proper position. It usually happens in small bones of the hand and foot, or in broken shoulders and hips and can be caused by a number of things including taking the cast off too soon.

Same rule-outs on NamUs.

What about Valerie Ann Larkin? http://www.nampn.org/cases/larkin_valerie.html
Age and height are within range, and it mentions she was trying to make her way from California to Virginia.

Looks possible except the hair color but she could have dyed it.

Except for the height, I'd say Linda Sohus:

Disappeared from Southern California in February 1985, "Clark Rockefeller" showed up in New England with her husband's vehicle; "Clark" is now in prison for the murder of Jon Sohus.

Could that height measurement be 6, 3???
