Full quote of a recent local news link above posted on May 22, 2017:

<modsnip>

Marc Bohanan, 60, has been missing since April 26 when he possibly left his home with another person, said Sheriff Mike McCoy.

<modsnip>

To that end, the sheriff is asking anyone with information to call Detective Watkins at 697-7823. A reward, he said, was being offered for credible and verifiable information.

McCoy said “everything is open,” and foul play hasn’t been ruled out.

Bohanan is 60, 6-foot, 3-inches tall and about 230 pounds. He doesn’t drive and according to friends, is physically disabled."



(This is me typing now). This is fairly local to me and it's been very sad to see no progress in finding this obviously well-loved father and grandfather. This is also my first attempt at starting a missing person's thread, and hopefully I won't have to edit it 50 times to make the image and link work, as I can't seem to do that right! lol!! :)
 
Unidentified Male remains found in Kingston Mines:
KINGSTON MINES &#8212; Authorities hope DNA will solve the mystery of a man whose skull was found on the banks of the Illinois River near a campground in Kingston Mines.

The skull was found Monday afternoon by a property owner at the Rivers Edge Campground, which is located at the foot of Washington Street in the southeastern Peoria County village. On Tuesday, Capt. Tyler McCoy of the Peoria County Sheriff&#8217;s Office said the owner found the skull, later determined by a forensic pathologist to be that of a man, near the bank of the river.
Locally, there are two prominent missing person cases. One is Robert Bee Jr., a 13-year-old Pekin boy who ran away from home in mid-November and hasn&#8217;t been seen since. The other is Marc Bohanan, 60, a Glasford man who has been missing since April 26 when he possibly left his home with another person.

Wow!!! I had missed that local news story and haven't checked the threads in a while!!

Thanks for sharing that!
 
I too live locally to this case and I'm hoping that the DNA from skull will come back as a match. His daughter needs closure.
 

The above skull turned out to be DNA matched to a torso previously found in 2016. Therefore, it cannot be Marc.

[h=1]Search continues for missing Glasford man[/h]
GLASFORD, Il. - Loved ones of Marc Bohanan describe the 60 year old Glasford man as a smiling, joking person, who had no enemies. Now a year since his disappearance, family members continue to search for answers, in hopes one day he will walk through the front door of their family home.

&#8220;It&#8217;s just been a roller coaster, we don&#8217;t know if he's alive or dead, we don't have something to grieve over. it's just continual,&#8221; said Bohanan&#8217;s daughter Natalie Roseboom.

On the morning April 26th, 2017, Roseboom drove by her fathers Glasford home, where the man, often refereed to as &#8216;Boh&#8217;, was doing yard work. Not giving much thought to the sight, Roseboom wouldn't have guessed it would be the last time she'd see him for at least a year.

&#8220;I got a Facebook message from his cleaning lady, she'd ask if I had seen him and I said said no, and she hadn&#8217;t seen him in two days&#8221; said Roseboom. She adds, &#8220;I then called him and there was no answer. I then called my friend whose a deputy, called non emergency and came out here to his house and started searching.&#8221;

Families of Alexis Scott, Marc Bohanan question search efforts
Family members of two Peoria County people who have been missing for more than two years are frustrated with what they feel is a lack of effort on what could be a promising lead.

Within the past 14 months, cadaver dogs have “hit” on a location near the Duck Creek power station near Banner Marsh in Fulton County. The dogs were indicating what they thought was the presence of a body within several feet of water in that marshy area.

And that, say the families of Marc Bohanan and Alexis Scott, is reason enough to send a dive team into those frigid waters. Twice, they say, the dogs hit. Once was in October 2018. The other was just last month. And in both cases, the Peoria Fire Department’s dive team didn’t go into the water.

Bohanan, circa 2017
  • Missing Since 04/26/2017
  • Missing From Glasford, Illinois
  • Classification Endangered Missing
  • Sex Male
  • Race White
  • Age 60 years old
  • Height and Weight 6'0 - 6'1, 230 - 240 pounds

  • Clothing/Jewelry Description Possibly brown boots.

  • Medical Conditions Bohanan needs a cane to walk; he cannot walk more than about ten feet unaided, and if he falls down he needs help getting up.

  • Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian male. Gray hair, brown eyes. Bohanan is bald. He had a long gray beard at the time of his disappearance. He has scars on the right side of his torso from a buckshot wound; some of the buckshot is still embedded in his body. Several of his teeth are missing.

Details of Disappearance​

Bohanan was last seen at his residence on Glasford Road in Glasford, Illinois on April 26, 2017. He called his nephew and asked him to come over and pick him up so he could cash a check and go to lunch. His nephew arrived before 12:00 p.m., about twenty minutes after the call, but Bohanan was gone.

On the day he disappeared, Bohanan was supposed to have dinner with a friend. He and his friend had been texting that morning, but Bohanan stopped replying. His friend went to the house with food at dinnertime and he wasn't there, so he left the food there and went away. After his disappearance was discovered, the food Bohanan's friend left was found untouched at the house.

Bohanan had been behaving normally prior to his disappearance. As he needs a cane to walk and he has no vehicle of his own, it's possible he left the house with somebody in their car. He has never been heard from again. Bohanan is considered missing under suspicious circumstances. His case remains unsolved.
