Mary Olenchuk - Ogunquit ME - August 9, 1970
"Mary Olenchuk, 13, disappeared from her parents' vacation home in Ogunquit, ME August of '70. She was last seen parking her bike and getting into a maroon car operated by a white male in his mid-30s. Her reamins were later located in an abandoned barn near Kennebunk, ME a few months later." http://www.websleuths.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-31454.html
Judith Hand - Farmington ME - September 10, 1971
I'm not having much luck finding information about this case, although it took place in my home town at the time and I remember it. Judith Hand was, I believe, a young teenager, and was found in a wooded area with a stream pretty much in the middle of town. While this is about 100 miles from Ogunquit, there seem to be similarities between this case and that of Mary Olenchuk.

Hey Sophie,
Daniel O'Connell was a cab driver in Lowell, MA. He told his parents he was driving to Canada with a friend he met.
If you go to Briansdreams.com, under alerts I think, there is a passage about a man named Sully who works at a golf course in Haverhill (Northfield - I think) who killed a cab driver and (2) other poeple. There's a sketch.
Came across it when it was first published and I still wonder about it whenever I read about Daniel.
Effie's McDonals,
Description of Suspect in article:
Several people who had worked or stayed at the hotel when MacDonald was killed told police they had seen a suspicious-looking man in the hotel. They described him as stocky, about 5-foot-10, 175 pounds, short brown hair, with prominent brown eyes.
oops meant to write
Effie MacDonald's murderer
Hey again Sophie,
Been thinking about Effie the past couple of days and the things I've learned over the years.
It is too bad witnesses did not give an approximate age of the suspect. According to FBI profiles men whom sexually assault elderly women are usually quite young.
It is possible that the perp was in his late teens or early twenties in 1965. The Boston & Maine Railroad was up and running then. I also believe the Bangor Airport was being built. Also students from Maine Maritime frequented Bangor. The perp would be in his sixties right about now.
