That sounds like a good idea Lion.
Thanks, RKowley:blowkiss:.
Jaded, if you like that idea, shall we post it as a sticky?
That sounds like a good idea Lion.
The ME would need to look up her records, if he/she has them, and read through it. I want to be careful about calling LE or ME too often, with one or two questions at a time. They get many calls each day, and I want to be efficient because of this. Since we don't need the info just yet, I am thinking we may want to save up any important questions for one phone call.

OT: have you guys seen this site? someone else posted it on the first page of the first thread but I can't remember who...it is interesting.

Jaded, I will go post all the links I can think of on skm for you. happy hunting.
Jaded, where do we post links for searches? Should we start a thread specifically for search links perhaps in the main forum? Then it could help us with all searches.

Wouldn't a forensic anthropologist be the one that determined she may have had a tumor on her knee? Or is that something that could be determined by anyone else in the medical field?In addition, her weight is unknown and the TX dps site reflects that, for her weight was changed to, "unknown." Unfortunately, LE initially went only by the ring size and never had an a forensic anthropologist examine her.
Hi Jaded. The TOD has recently been changed from 6 mo.-1 yr to unknown. Perhaps we may want to reflect that in the letter.
Also, her race has been changed from White/Hispanic to White. Perhaps we could describe her as possibly being White or White/Hispanic. And, we may want to note that we have no idea what her hair and eye color could have been. I'd hate for someone to not say anything about a blond haired girl that went missing because they are under the impression that Princess had dark hair and was Hispanic.
In addition, her weight is unknown and the TX dps site reflects that, for her weight was changed to, "unknown." Unfortunately, LE initially went only by the ring size and never had an a forensic anthropologist examine her.
I might want to put the additional, little pic in there because there are differences between the two pics. In the little one her lips are not puckered and her face is narrower. Someone could recognize her from either pic even though the one showing her with long hair looks nicer.
I hope it is okay that I made several suggestions. I know that we want to include as much info in the letter and have it be as accurate as possible for the best possible results.

You could have a 1974 REL yearbook for a mere $75.00 on EBay, lol!

Yeah, and that's the only one I've been able to find. Paying $75 for the 1975 yearbook...maybe. But not the 1974 yearbook. Instead, I think I'll try to find someone with a 1974 yearbook who would be willing to at least make some scans of the juniors section for us.

Should we see about having the other thread locked so we are all on the same page?
I'm going to see about finding a 1974 REL yearbook, or at least someone with a 1974 REL yearbook. I want to cross-refrence the juniors in 74 with juniors and seniors in 75. I posted this "zebra" in Part One (or maybe it was someoneknowsme.com?) but I feel it deserves a look. If the ring belonged to her mother, then it's possible Princess Blue's mom was pregnant with her during her junior year (1974) and it caused her to fall short of the number of credits needed to be classified as a senior the following year (1975). If that were the case, it's still possible that at the end of 75 she had enough credits to graduate with the rest of the senior class. Even if she had to take classes over the summer to recieve her diploma and graduate, it would still fit with the 1975 class ring. Particularly since rings are typically ordered sometime before graduation.
MrsG- I would be glad to help you add names to the spreadsheet. Just tell me what page in the yearbook I should start with. I can put a * next to the names that I have trouble reading in the scans so they can be double checked. Also, would it be possible to scan the student index pages so that we can have a list of names for everyone in the yearbook in case we want to cross-refrence names we find (in articles, missing person sites, etc.) against students from the freshman, sophomore, and junior classes as well?
Thank you Jaded, for working on completing this letter. :angel: When do you plan to send it out? I wanted to catch you before you did to possibly clarify a few facts:Draft of the letter to Alumni. Need feedback and suggestions.
