I'd read the Batson fellow is deceased. Anyone find an obituary for him? phenolred posted that his wife's name was Janie. I'd like to know more about these people.

Mysterylover, I totally agree with you about the KOA guy. I see so many gaps, like, didn't he know her name? And accents!
Did either speak with an accent?
I don't recall every seeing that info anywhere, so please do correct me if I have missed it....
I think I've got something here with this latest possible match. This is wild!!!! Thumpa, thumpa, thumpa.
The Percival guy's from Regina, SK. In Regina is a car dealership, Percival Ford-Lincoln.
I do not know how long they've been in business or if he's related or not, but the possibility exists.
Now over in Australia, there's an aging race car driver, Allan M., who grew up in Saskatoon, SK, 3 hrs. north of Regina.
Guess what the guy liked to drive? Fords.
Remember the Coors/Sebring '75 T-Shirt the UID was wearing?
Well guess who won the Camel Challenger G-T Sebring in 1975? Yup, Allan M. Unbelievable!!:woohoo:
Now Allan's family moved to Australia in the 60's, but this Allan had already started racing back in Canada.
I wonder where he got his cars? Surely not. Yes? Maybe?
Allan's about 10 yrs. older than the missing person in Regina. Could that young racing guy have been the boy's hero? Nah, that'd just be over the top.
I have so got my fingers crossed on this match. This could really be the one. I'm in the process of composing an email to the Regina Police. I stayed up all night comparing photos, and checking leads and hunches, coordinating case file numbers, etc.
If our UID was at the race, he might have gotten to talk to Allan M., and there's a chance the race driver would remember, if that particular Percival family had anything at all to do with how he got started in racing.
I'm really counting my :chicken::chicken: here.
This post is long, and I'm not through yet so I'll break here for now. BBL
Mystery, the son took off in 1973. He may have been driving at least a three year old car. A top end Mustang? I'm sure if the dealer was his uncle, he likely cut him a deal. I wish the Regina LE provided more info other than "last seen in Regina." Were the son and father estranged? Did the son have some sort of mental problems?
I can't find a female who fits the description missing from Saskatchewan. If this was an outdoorsy type guy maybe he met her in a campground or park. I'm assuming too much, I think. Just need to wait to see what Regina LE has to say about all this.
I'd have thought if this young man came from a well-heeled family, there would be more effort put into the search. Can't find a single newspaper article on his disappearance. It's frustrating.
I was just thinking about the couple being murdered the night of Aug. 9, 1976.
When was the last race?...or a list of the races dates that summer...
What I'm trying to figure out is the length of time this couple would have been in that area...:waitasec:
