Cinda Pallett and Charlotte Kinsey went to the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds and phoned home to say they had a job with a man there. They were never seen again.

This was 1981 and the girls were both 13.

feel free to make individual threads for each state once the list is put out with the years and we can pull over cases

Oh heck yeah!! :loveyou:

Interesting....the link they have up right now for the case gives the 1956 date. (http://www.mymcpnews.com/2014/02/11...apping-of-lyon-sisters-others-victims-sought/)

Sounds like there's a typo or some confusion in the records.

I just noticed there is an information package that goes with the press release. Page six is a timeline of documented dates and locations for Welch.

BeeBee...............lost my thought! :floorlaugh:

Nothing in Tennessee. Poor December.

Wasn't there one in Idaho? We had a featured cold case about one once. I can't remember her name?

This is the one I was thinking of and it's too old of a case.

ID - Lonnie Jones, murdered at Orofino "Lumberjack Days", 1951

P.S. This says his DOB is 12/30/1956. Don't know why Maryland had his DOB as 1952.

 

[shadowdancer]

I have read the list of dates and locations. Doesn't look a complete list to me, but its a start. Hopefully they can pad it out a bit as they investigate more.

Here's the link (the attached pdf) to the person-of-interest, Lloyd Welch aka Mike Welch. He's known to be a drifter, carnival worker, and landscaper who walked along the railroad tracks in the area and he also travelled across the country. He's currently in jail in Delaware. Photos and more details are at that link.

 

[shadowdancer]

I don't think we should rule out any locations that are not on the list, as long as the dates don't clash with periods of incarceration or dates where they know where he was.

I think there is Dewey. MD courts have his DOB as 1952 yet DE courts have it listed as 12/30/1956. ?????

Welch is currently being held at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna, DE. (FYI for any who are curious)

 

[nursebeeme]

I set up threads for each state on the list so we can pull missing cases over to them

 

[nursebeeme]

eta: he spent a long time in SC and that is where I am going to start looking for any cases that could match

Interesting that the packet (http://www.mymcpnews.com/wordpress/w...acket-Lyon.pdf) states on p. 4 that Welch may have been connected to the "Castle" like church on Seminary Rd. & Forest Glen Rd. That building is now called The Castle at Forest Glen and did house a seminary at one point, but would have been a business operation in the 70s (http://thecastleatforestglen.com/history.html).

He was known to hitchhike around the DC area, spending a lot of time in Silver Spring and Wheaton," police said at a news conference on Tuesday.
Police say Welch has convictions in sexual abuse cases involving young girls in states including Virginia, Delaware and South Carolina

Press release with his picture in 1977 and picture of girlfriend Helen Craver: http://www.mymcpnews.com/2014/02/11...apping-of-lyon-sisters-others-victims-sought/

Interesting how closely this Welch character resembles the sketch in the press release.

I am puzzled as to why this is the first time in 39 years that Montgomery County Police have released the sketch to the public.

The only sketch ever released in the past was the sketch of the Tape Recorder Man. It was released on 1 April 1975 and a few days later slightly modified and re-released. It is NOT the one in the above link.
