Mingo Mingo Mingo. This is what I have found about any Mingo's in the area. The link below is public details for Mingo Gaiton who had a PO Box in Willow Creek, CA in 1995.

The Mingo Gaitan in the articles below was born in 1973, which would make him about the same age as our Jen/Jade. And possibly the same Mingo with the Willow Creek PO BOX.

If this is the Mingo that lived with Jennifer/Jade. I think its time he is re-questioned by police about what happened to her. Maybe new clues will come about. Wonder if the Mingo in the note was ever questioned. Since it seems he was away for a couple months.
As for the Fred's I have been looking into, the one Fred I had researched turned out to be a dead end. So I went back to the drawing board aka the public records. What do we know about "COWBOY FRED"?
1. He was said to be obsessed with Jennifer/Jade.
2. He was considered a Transient living in the area. (Does this mean he was not from Humboldt Co.?, Or could he have always been from Humboldt Co. ?)
3. He was an Older man, Old enough to have served in the Vietnam War. (born before 1957)
4. Hasn't been seen since Jennifer/Jade went missing Sept 1993.
Questions? Was Fred homeless? or did he live somewhere in the area? Being a Vet was he collecting any sort of income that would provide him enough to rent a place? Would he have a PO BOX? or Street address? If someone who remembers Fred saw his picture would they recognize him?
I found an address that I am wondering about in Eureka Ca. Looking for it on Google Maps shows no such address. 802 Huntoon St Eureka Ca. Was also listed as 302 Huntoon St. Near the 802 address is Eureka High School and the district offices. There is also a place called Marshall Family Resource Center in these District Buildings. But again not with the address 802 Huntoon. The thing that caught my attention with this Fred is this address that for one seems fake. But also this particular Fred was listed as living there from Sept 18 1993-Oct 1 1993. He is listed at this address also in May of 1988 and Sept 1989. He was not found back in the area until 2007. Wonders what is up with the weird address on Huntoon and the Dates on the one record seem strange too. Sept 18th 1993- Oct 1 1993. less than 2 weeks and so soon after Jen/Jade went missing. Is there a Cheap motel or hotel at this address? Or was there one in the late 80's early 90's? Curiouser and curiouser
So I did a little research on this Fred with the weird address. Turns out he was born in Humboldt County in the 1940's. Which would put him at an age that would make him "OLDER" and a "WAR VET". I began searching the yearbooks on classmates. Turns out this Fred I'm looking into went to Eureka High School. He was a class behind Ernest Samuel Christie Jr. (Another man I think should be investigated even though hes in the grave now). Thought that was interesting. Probably means nothing. But I refuse to give up hope on finding out what happened to Jennifer/Jade.
Bump for Jen/Jade
