Has anyone compared Patricia to this unidentified woman?

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

The timeline seems to match up.
yes i had noted in an earlier post that there were likenesses. However, in addition to what I said before re. the UID wearing work clothes, also the UID sketch (one of them) showed her wearing glasses. It says that Patricia had just reading glasses, but that they were left at home.
Also, she wasn't at the main truck stop at end of night, a male had dropped her off outside Grove City so not likely a truck drove her the 8-9 hrs. to where the UID was found. I just don't think it is her, but if anyone else does, please by all means send the info. to be checked!

I notice some standout differences, like in height and weight, but I wouldn't want to rule it out.

I agree. I really goofed up on the height. In 3 years it is possible she gained weight, but the height...yeah, that would be a no.

Sadly both her parents passed away. Her father Domer R. Seelbaugh on Oct. 14, 2002 and her mother Betty Jane Seelbaugh on August 24, 2020. In her obituary Obituary for Betty Jane Seelbaugh at Cunningham Funeral Home Patricia is listed as missing since February 1973. Although all MP reports say October 26, 1973.

PSP Mercer County sent me Patricia's info back in 2008 to have her added to DN and my old PA Missing site.

Text of the email in part - notice that Patricia's birth date is February 24, 1956. I'm wondering if whoever wrote the obit for her mother erroneously used Patricia's birth month instead of October when she went missing.

I wonder where are the friends' testimonies. Patricia spent the night with some friends at a truck stop, I imagine they can provide an account about that night:
What did they do?
Was Patricia in good spirits?
Did she have a date?
Were any of the male friends interested on her?
How was her relationship with the male who gave her a ride?
Why did she want to go to Grove City?
Did she live there or was she meeting anyone else?

It would be great if any of her friends could answer some of these questions.
