Not much to go on but possibly Kenneth Lee Gautier Kenneth Lee Gautier – The Charley Project? Known as "Kenny" to his friends and "Lee" to his family. Doe Network: 4881DMFL - Kenneth Lee Gautier and NamUs pages: The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs). Originally from New York, Kenneth vanished while in Florida visiting relatives during the summer of 1975. His stats are close to those of North Meridian John Doe. A few things stood out to me about his case (bold is mine): Like the John Doe, Kenneth had several fingers on his right hand amputated a couple of years prior to his disappearance (due to an accident involving fireworks). While his family and roommates noticed his absence right away, he allegedly had talked about wanting to take a trip to California and other western states beforehand so they just assumed he left to do that and were not initially worried. He wasn't reported missing until a considerable amount of time passed with no contact. Thoughts? Kenneth's thread: FL - FL - Kenneth Gautier, 20, Ruskin, 1 May 1975.

@theshadow45 did you ever receive a response to this submission? Mr Gautier is not listed as a ruleout, there are still the same two ruleouts that were previously listed here.
