how well can you really search yearbooks though , peoples pics look so different sometimes
I can only tell by the ears. They may get larger as people age, but they remain uniquely identifiable.

In the pic the necklace looks round to me, but it could be obscured. 10th grade is 15-16 years old, correct?
I tried looking for the 1979 yearbook but it's not available on classmates. If anyone has access to it, maybe search for her there.

Update on Chenealogy Work:

“Our Jane Doe is under comparison with a missing 18-yr old from Louisiana. Ms. Mary Rodermund is being compared, and collection of a reference genetic sample from a family member of Mary has been unsuccessful. Hopes for the best!”

I'm familiar with the case of Mary Rodermund and I never, ever would have thought that WCJD could be her. Interesting.....

Side by side with Mary Rodermund. This is way way closer than I would have thought. Click to enlarge.

I tried out a few ps edits in all haste, but does the necklace look like a snail shell to you?

Name attached to photo is Tammy Young. She does not show up in the 81-82 yearbooks, unfortunately it seems like a pretty popular name as I have tried searching it, but maybe one of you can find more than I did
Sorry, just to be clear is Tammy Young the girl from the reddit pic wearing the necklace? I think she looks a lot like WCJD!

There are no doubt people around that knew rodermund have they been asked to provide any ID from pics of WCJD I wonder.

Thanks @carbuff. Guess I can see it some I’m that one. Not sure though. Anxious to see or hear more on this.

I'm inclined to think it's a big overblown false alarm. But the picture and stats are close enough I can't rule it out.

She went missing in 1978. Did she have some connection to the Ellis Unit?

She would have been missing for two years and that would really fall outside what Robert Hohenberger did with the other girls. If he was in fact her killer.

Did he do kidnapping calls for other victims? Or was that just a cruel hoax?

Took me a second to think of what that reminded me of. Have you watched the Lake Erie Murders? The girl who was taken from the shopping center and called her mom saying she was home but she was with the killer. Killed and dumped but not found for like 100 days.
I don't find much information about Mary's disappearance. I did find something written by her brother but he doesn't allude to anything that would make his sister a runaway or any connection to Texas.

Not to my knowledge but I am just now kind of reading up on him. He seemed to stick to patterns. “Always in Thursday’s. And always soon after dark..”. Used a badge to coax his victims to trust him. But beside that he was killed in 1978 I think.

Does Mary Rodermund have DNA in the database?

I haven't watched that but I'll have to. Mary's ransom call sounded like it didn't mention where or when the money was supposed to be dropped off. I know when the Lyon sisters disappeared there was a fake ransom thing. Did her kidnapping make the news at the time? If the call came before anyone would have known she was missing it wouldn't be a random crank call.

Thanks mrs BCrumble. I don't see a snail shell..I see some kind of shamrock.
