He was put in NamUs in 2018 and he doesn't appear in California's database of missing persons. The 1970s was such a fluid period in US history. It was popular to just disappear for a year or so. To pack up everything and travel the continent or to go to California and enjoy the drug scene.

Nothing seems to match with this one but sharing because there is just something about the UID and missing. Height is off. Hair is off but the UID'S hair doesn't seem to be very strawberry to me. Scars don't line up either.

WHAT HAPPENED TO GERALD? San Francisco, CA 3/17/1972 Missing Person Gerald Thomas Clifford was 19 years old when he was last heard from on or around March 17, 1972 when he was somewhere in Colorado...

<<Gerald Thomas Clifford was 19 years old when he was last heard from on or around March 17, 1972 when he was somewhere in Colorado while on a cross-country trip, hitchhiking from Medford, Massachusetts to San Francisco, California to visit his girlfriend. His girlfriend, who was out of the state at the time, stated that he did reach San Francisco and left a note with her roommates before disappearing.>>

<<His niece writes, "My grandparents pushed and pushed for it to be filed but it never was. No one realized this until I was looking for the report in 2018 and couldn't find it. I want my mom and her siblings to have some closure in their lifetime. Gerald was the oldest and my mom was the youngest. He was always very sweet to his baby sister and she misses him dearly.">>
