ME ME - Cathy Moulton, 16, Portland, 24 Sept 1971

That NH UID from 1971 was ruled out as Cathy. Not sure why it's not listed or updated.
I got that directly from NamUs, and I think I mentioned it somewhere on this thread a while ago.
I have nowhere else to put this.
From NamUs Rep, May 2016: Thank you for this submission, Cathy has been ruled out as this doe.

Thank you Alley. I'm going to keep looking for Cathy. She's one that grabbed at me once I found her story. So sad for her family.

I know. I want to find her before her poor mother passes away

Cathy Marie Moulton

This is a blog post I made about Cathy on my wordpress website.

Wow! There's so much I missed from reading through initially. It really does seem more likely she was left with Reid Perley.

Is he deceased? What about Lester Everett?

Lester is deceased but I’m unsure of Reid Perley

Bumping. This one is staying on my mind. I don't have anything to add, but maybe if it pops up, someone will.

Wait! Maybe there is something I can mention. It looks like there might have been another photo added to her Charley Project? I don't remember the one far fight, second row. Full smile, profile from opposite side to others. She looks a bit different there. Happier than the other images.

I don't recall that picture, so it may be recently added.

fingers crossed it helps! She was a cute kid.

I feel so bad when a missing person only has one obviously outdated photo, or they're squinting, it's blurry, torn,etc.

There is more information on the case from the Portland Daily Sun, April 23, 2011, page 10. Names of friends of Everett, a better timeline of his movements, that kind of thing. To read you go to the bottom and click the +, (I was like, hey I can't read this tiny print! when I first saw it.) You can click the arrow button to go to the front page, for the start of the article, but that is all stuff we already know.

Oh wow, I think I know who Millie and Donna Augustine are, they are Mi'kmaq from Big Cove. I don't know about Emmett Peter, but Peter is also a Mi'kmaq name. It wouldn't be unusual for both Maliseet and Mi'kmaq to be working picking potatoes in Maine back at that time. (or broccoli cutting, blueberry picking, etc)

I was reading somewhere that there was a sighting of Cathy at the Bangor Mall, and they asked why she would be there. There is a reservation nearby, Indian Island Penobscot reserve. Even though I'm from Tobique, I do have relatives there. Reid probably did too, or friends. They might have stayed there before heading north, stopped at the mall to get Cathy a change of clothes or at least some toiletries? I know it sounds like they didn't have money, but shoplifting?

I thought of one more thing, people keep talking about a camp in Smyrna being some big boy scouts or vacation place with a bunch of cabins or tent sites. I think that's wrong. When I think of camp, I think of a shack or trailer in the middle of nowhere where hunters go, with an outhouse and wood stove. It's a good place to go to party, especially if there are drugs or under-age drinking, cops aren't going to come break it up and arrest people. I wonder if she got tired of waiting for someone to bring her back home, took off on foot, got lost and died in the woods?

The Bangor Mall opened in 1978.

Then that couldn't have been her. They had credible sightings up until Nov 71. I hope she is still alive, but I think she must have died sometime in Nov 71.

I’m positive she’s alive

I don't live on the reservation anymore, but do visit. When I was there a few months back I asked, and Reid was still alive and living there.
